Educational background:
Martha Batul is currently an undergraduate student at the University of Ghana pursuing a bachelor’s degree in psychology. She had her secondary education at Ghana Senior High, Koforidua where she studied geography, economics and elective mathematics. She attended St. Anthony School for her Junior High, primary and preschool education.
Experience:
Martha is passionate about learning new skills and enhancing her abilities. It was the zeal to learn and add on to her life and others around her that drove her to join Tech E.I.G. The same enthusiasm drove her to challenge herself to engage in a voluntary service at the Balme library, University of Ghana where she learnt the concept of digitization.
During her secondary school days she served as a proof reader for her year group school magazine and learnt how to review and critique articles. She loves motivating and encouraging people especially her peers to challenge themselves and build on their capabilities. After her secondary school education, she was instrumental in the formation of a youth group for SHS leavers and students in her church. The group served as a platform for the youth to coin ideas on how they can help build the church and learn some social skills like public speaking as well.
In terms of human relations, she understands that the foundation of every society depends on the kind of relationship existing among the members. She therefore volunteered as a receptionist at the University of Ghana Guest Center to broaden her knowledge on good interpersonal relations.
She shares the CEO’s believe that the African youth, especially, Ghanaian youth can come up with brilliant ideas and become entrepreneurs of technology firms. So, she joined Tech E.I.G. to help motivate and encourage her peers to come out of their comfort zones and do something. On the whole she is excited to be on the platform that promotes youth initiatives.
