About this ebook
Bennique Inderria Brown
Ms. Bennique Inderria Brown Born on Saturday, her favorite day of the week, August 7, on the beautiful island of New Providence, she was blessed Bennique Inderria Brown, the second of three children. Her tertiary education led her to the College of the Bahamas, where she obtained a bachelor’s degree in secondary education, specializing in English language and literature, and a master of science degree in reading with concentration in inclusive education. Ms. Brown was taught from a very early age about religion. Moreover, her years of dedication to the Pentecostal ministry provided her the opportunity to serve on the usher board and sing on the praise team and combined choir. She has learned that in all things you must put God first, and in return, he will give you the desires of your heart. One such desire of hers is to become a world-renowned international public speaker addressing the youths of this nation to follow their dreams. She is definitely well on her way to accomplishing this dream as she is a part of an international organization that has enhanced her public speaking and communication skills. She joined the Toastmasters organization in 2005 and, during that time, has held the positions of secretary, vice president of membership, vice president of education, and president. Ms. Brown has one of the best careers in the world. She guides, counsels, and fashions the ideas of the brightest and freshest minds on the planet. Yes, she is an educator contributing to the growth of knowledge in the nation. Presently, she is stationed at the Great S.C. McPherson Junior High School (home of the Sharks). In September 2014, she was appointed as the school’s reading coordinator. She has also facilitated the school’s speech club since 2007. Speaking is where she finds excitement. She believes that the highest level of communication is to speak with passion and sincerity. Despite her love for public speaking, one of her greatest accomplishments happened when she fulfilled the dream. In June 2012, she published her first book of poems entitled Life’s Experiences. Additionally, in December 2014, Ms. Brown published a children’s book entitled The Big School, which was officially launched on February 7, 2015. Her writing career has just begun, as there is much to be expected in the very near future. Special moments happen when you work without looking for rewards but achieve them anyway. In January 2014, Ms. Bennique Brown was named the teacher of the year at her school for 2014–2016. Her secret to success has a lot to do with her favorite quote, "A journey of one thousand miles begins with one step. Ms. Brown is a writer, a public speaker, a teacher, a lover of fine art, a shopper, a trendsetter, a leader, and most importantly, a dreamer. She makes the dreams come alive in her head, because if she doesn’t, they will remain a constant buzz. Buzz . . . did you hear it? The rest about Bennique Inderria Brown is still unwritten.
