Community Outreach - Teaching English
The 4 older girls have English class at their district school which is supplemented almost nightly at the Shelter. Both the younger girls as well as the older ones have English Classes on both Saturday and Sunday for 2 hrs each session. On the weekends, the doors of the shelter are opened to the local children of the district who also join for the English Classes.

All of these classes are taught by one of the short or long term volunteers. This last Saturday one of the volunteer teachers took ill so I took over the Saturday class of the younger children. I must say that they keep me hopping as I tried to hold the attention of 8 children all different ages and at varied levels. We covered number, colors, shapes and animals. I was just knocked out.
More to come soon,
Carpe Diem,
