In this video, I discuss some of the things you need to do as an immigrant or potential immigrant to rise above the fray and make a good life for you and your loved ones.
Good thing you didn't get the job! You're helping so many people here. And your work in Public Health is amazing. It worked out for you despite that job not working out.
Hi Professor Ann, I just discovered your channel 2 days ago and I'm so obsessed with it, everything I needed to know is on it, where have you been all my life 😃 Thank you for doing these videos, God Bless you
Can I like this video more than once. Jeez! I'm in the UK and I totally get what you mean. Good think is I was a marketer before I left Nigeria so I kinda already understood the part of having to assimilate. My regional manager said to me when I started that marketing job in Nigeria, "people like people who like them, people like people who are like them." I've had that at the back of my mind since coming here. I'm still very different (I'm a hijab-wearing Muslim to boot :) but I try to keep an openind and honestly like the people i have to work with/ for. And yes, be a little more like them.
Dear professor Ann, Thank you so much for this honest video. I am applying for next September intake in the UK. I am somewhat excited to apply all these tips to practice. Hopefully I will fit in the space and community as a budding psychologist. Thanks alottt 🌸
When you were wondering why you were leaning forward, I was also wondering why I kept leaning forward LOL!, Im about to get into the screen because this info is just bomb!
Thank you for revealing the truth without sugarcoating it! I’ve been watching your videos and I learned a lot of important things that people tend to forget/ignore. I love your channel! Please keep creating videos :)
I just have to say that you're an actual Nigerian, the way you make your mistakes and then turn them to jokes💪. Looking forward to meeting you someday.
Chei I have been doing somethings wrong. Ann oooo thank you I agree that many times people don't try to assimilate into the culture and so cannot be successful.
Thoughtful and insightful points. However, you didn't mention one aspect I've always argued - the path of migration and quality of migrants. Someone who emigrated illegally will have a difficult time assimilating than someone who went through legal migration. The quality of migrants also matters. The kind of Nigerian migrants in the UAE differs significantly from Nigerian migrants in Singapore. Another one is people going to institutions that aren't well recognised. For goodness sake, someone came from Nigeria only to go to institutions the natives avoid. The opportunities will be minimal and worse still considering the colour of skin and country one emigrated from.
Even now in Nigeria, most HR persons won't tolerate someone complimenting their looks and smell. I wonder why people do that, maybe so they look more confident. I'm new on your channel Dr. Ann, and I definitely need to start learning about football. Thanks so much for sharing!
Lmao. You're hilarious, Ann. You got me at "Ha, ha. It's not that easy". To think that's the absolute truth lol. They're so negative about moving to America !!! Also, I was gonna say, Ann wore a red lippie today, that's new and yay! It looks good on you. Thanks for the advice and tips, very helpful!!! Lol thank you, Ann. 😂😂😂🖤
I really appreciate this video,saved it up on watch later ♥️♥️♥️ I strongky feel like I would need to rewatch later lol I'm looking forward to moving after my degree, this year most probably. But I can't make up my mind about either migrating to canada or an European country since I would be incorporating work alongside studies, please which do you think would be better?🙏
Please do a video teaching us how to communicate in USA, assimilate into their culture,etc Basically the soft skills for the USA because i know they differ from the ones in Africa. Thank you!
Hello Dr Ann, I really do appreciate you usually tips, they have been so much educative and helpful. My question is not directly pertaining to this video, but I has been on my mind for long. I graduated with 3.32cgpa (69%) 2:2 and most universities in Canada for masters degree accepts 2:1 for admission. And on another hand, graduate studies for graduate certificate accepts 2:2 for admission. Now my question goes thus; -what is my chance of getting a good job during and after the program with a graduate certificate compared to msc. -how valuable is the graduate certificate in the field of construction in Canada. Please advise me on steps to take. Thanks for your time and in anticipation of your favorable response. Regards
I'm just listening to your video now and the point of being practical over following passion really gets to me. Please is it possible to go to nursing school after studying a pure Arts course like Literature?
Wow, This is wonderful and inspiring. It's funny though that you were kinda careful on the working culture of Nigerians (Worried of twitter attacks??...Lol). Please you don't need to mince words when saying the "bitter truth" and on helpful info for Nigerians wanting to emigrate. I worked with an American as my boss in an NGO here in Nigeria and I would be forever grateful to him for affecting my working culture positively... Once again, thanks for the video.
Dr Ann, I want to ask you some academic questions and advice on career directions privately. I will be glad if you can give me an audience. Thank you ma'am.
