Sylvia Aidoo (Miss.)

Miss Sylvia Aidoo is a Fante woman who fellowships at the International Central Gospel Church. She is 38 years old with two dependents and teaches Graphic design and General Knowledge in Art at Wesley Grammar Secondary School in Dansoman. She has taught for twelve years and is a form mistress at her present school. She is a First Degree Holder in in Education (Arts) from the University of Education Winneba.

As a working woman, society, especially family members, expect you to support them financially thus placing so much demands on you.

Her vision for the future is to become a PhD holder and lecturer in any of the universities across the country. She is of the view that Ghanaian women should take up bigger challenges in life and at least every woman should have basic education in order to fit into this present age.
