WIN: Author wishes to inspire people with his books

Teacher and author Bethuel Matabola has written over eight books with the intent to strengthen the belief that any person can accomplish their dreams if they are resolute and put effort into achieving their heart’s desires.

The books are supported by tremendous engagement in researched literature, other people’s experiences and his individual experiences, including his health.

Matabola’s books include Alumni of 2016, It’s up to you, Set Free, Life at Psychiatric Hospital, Everyone Deserves Success, Passion For Existence, Lesang Bana, Se Lahle Tshepo and Even The Snail Did Reach The Ark which better describes his life’s challenges.

Despite having suffered a nervous breakdown when he was in matric (which he didn’t complete then) as well as scleroderma in 2018, he completed his matric in 2004.

He obtained a bachelor of education degree in 2009 and a public relations certificate from Boston College in 2018.
The 61-year-old was a teacher at Edenridge High School in Palm Ridge from 2013 before he was laid off in 2018 due to his worsening health.
