A woman from the US has served
as an example of strength and inspiration after climbing the ranks at her
workplace. Pam Talbert who once worked as a school janitor mixed hard work and
perseverance to give rise to a booming career as an assistant principal.

According
to WBRZ,
the mother of three had a learning disability that had not been
diagnosed but this did not stop her from achieving her dreams. For someone who
could not read or write, becoming an educator was nothing short of a miracle.

“Miracles
happen and you are looking at a miracle. I am a miracle. I could not read and
write. I was on a third-grade level,” she said. Pam admitted her kids pushed
her to greatness and forced her out of her comfort zone. The dedicated
assistant principal learned and read what her kids were learning and started to
pick up a few things from their books. Pam admitted her kids pushed her to
greatness and forced her out of her comfort zone.
Most
times, when the kids returned from school they would tutor their mum.
Eventually, she managed to go back to school and earn both her bachelor’s and
master’s degrees at Southern University. ‘‘It was very hard, but I persevered
because I knew that it was important that I did that,” Pam added. Even more
inspiring, Pam and her son are headed to school to earn their PhDs from
Southern University. “Despite where you are coming from, or your background,
your history or where you live… It is going to be alright if you persevere. If
you try,” Talbert said.
