The children at the Goducate Children’s Home in Cambodia are learning several livelihood skills that they can apply when they leave the Home and return to their communities. One advantage they have over other children in Cambodia is their education in English. To give them on-the-job training in perhaps starting English-learning centers, and to help others in the community, a team from the Home has been going to the neighboring areas to hold English-language classes. The team is made up of 4 teachers from the Goducate Children’s Home and 7 of the older children.
These English classes have been held in three areas, either once or twice a week.The classes are held in the open, with the students sitting on chairs provided by the residents there, who welcome the chance for their children to learn English. Most of the students are children aged 5 to 7.
The classes are not only helping the children at the Home to help themselves when they return to their communities, but they are also teaching them how to help others.
