Thank you Vijay and Ravi!

The last couple of weeks, Vijay has been our teacher since Ravi is in Dehli for his German studies. Vijay has done a great job as a teacher these two weeks and it is great for us to know we have such a capable substitute teacher at hand. Our literacy class is now taking a well earned break. We will start the classes again in two months, and by then Ravi is back to teach. We will thank all our donors and partners who have made this possible. We are now working on expanding and improving our literacy project.

In his first lesson,  the students showed Vijay how Ravi ususally holds the class and showed him their books. The students also told Vijay they were very happy to have Ravi as a teacher and that he teaches well. Vijay did a small test of their skills and also gave them a small assignment from us; to write and/or draw what they think of our class and their dreams for the future. Not an easy task for indian children; to speak (or write) openly about things like that from their own hearts and minds! But they did their best, and we will share this with you later on.


We were happy to learn that Aryan's oldest son came by and participated in Vijay's first class! He has said he doesn't want to do the class anymore- but still there he was! We are hoping to set up a class more suitable for him and others like him from October when Ravi is back in Khajuraho.
