Letter to Parents

Now is a difficult time for people all over the world. We are so sad to close our regular classes for children. We know that this has hurt many lives. We are awaiting the advice of the local government but we expect to reopen classes as soon as possible.

 

Despite this challenge, we continue to serve the community. Our organization has overcome many challenges, so let’s not forget we are together. Let’s not lose the thread of communication, connection, and relationships. We want to thank the community for your continued belief in us. We believe in you too.

 

There is good news! Without a doubt, you the parent can teach your own child at home, even if you don’t have a smartphone, even if you don’t know English, even if you don’t have means, even if you have not gone to school. If you can read, it’s enough to start teaching. You the parent are an adult, her first mentor, and you have already learned more things than her in your life. A child watches you and copies you. If you read, he will beg “Read to me! May I learn also?”  A parent is indeed the best teacher for a child, because you already love each other! Don’t worry, we will help you step by step:
