KEY TAKEAWAYS

His mum was a great model for him and is his forever #1 supporter. James will do anything to make his mum proud.
James also remembers how his values were shaped during his childhood. It was his father who pushed him to study more, do more. James sees him as an intelligent and a passionate man. His dad supports everything he does to move forward in life.
James knows how difficult it is to survive in this world. So as an exam coach, he wants to help people gain all the skills you need to pass any qualifications/exams needed. James believes that even the most hopeless can leave the exam hall with an ear to ear smile.
Some of James tips when taking your Accounting exams: Have a study plan.
Practice time management.
Use common sense.
Don’t get emotional, wound up, or stressed.
For James, it’s important to increase the ‘consciousness of life’. Spend time with yourself. Spend time with other people. Every time you fall off the wagon, just remember that it’s part of life. Everything happens for a reason, and there are always available resources around you that you can use.
