Testimonials

I only knew a computer from pictures at school in KwaMpande. PROTEC Pmb offered exposure to Science Experiments, learning how to speak and read English…..site visits to companies, hearing about different Universities. I am forever grateful to PROTEC Pmb for changing my life in the best possible way!

– Valencia Mzila (2004)

I am forever grateful in getting the necessary results in Maths and Physical Science to gain access to DUT, to study National Diploma in Electrical Engineering (Heavy Current) and a study bursary. I’m now employed as an Electrical Technician at Preformed Line Products SA.

– Kwanele Ndumo (2015)

I hold a BEd degree from UKZN Edgewood Campus in Maths & Physical Science Education – I knew teaching was my calling from the time I had the opportunity to stand in front of my peers in the Maths Class at PROTEC Pmb Sat School, and lead the lesson for Mrs Mfeka! I have also lead the Grade 10 Personal Development Camp for Mrs Smuts since 2015 – every Grade 10 has great memories of their Camp!

– Sisanda Mkhwanazi (2013)

I was assisted not only in Maths & Science, but in the University & Bursary application processes for my MB ChB degrees at the University of Stellenbosch, where I am now completing my 5th Year of study. Thank you very much PROTEC Pmb, your efforts have helped me advance to where I am today!
