The final two weeks of the program sees eight adult learners get reassessed and also attempt to achieve their personal goals. Makere reads a book to her kids, and Lamine attempts his learner's permit. The students work on building confidence for their graduation speeches by taking a Masterclass at NIDA run by famous Australian actor, writer and director Marcus Graham.
