Prior approaching to Wide Horizon

Prior reaching to Wide Horizon was provoking me to continue my education. It was brilliant information from educational relevance, especially, former students who used to be my student and a friend. I was a teacher of Basic English and computer in my community that name Happy Hill along Thai- Burma border which was victim of tension in our native land. As possible as I can help for our people, especially young children in such area of inside or outside the village. Therefore, I am eager to be an implementation for my community but I, myself should be able to hand on appropriate education to share. In meanwhile, I also am just shooting in the dark with my skill that I had to manage a small project of orphanages in our village. I realized when I handles my staffs and working with them as a team work. Fortunately, former student told me about his valuable studying at Wide Horizon program that running on another Thai-Burma boarder. During my responsibility period, I had a chance to contact with one of teacher in that program to open entrance exam in our village. It was exiting in the exam and after it, waiting my result. We two people were lucky for exam, one is my student and me. I was very content to travel across many obstacles on the way to Mae Sot that waiting in Chiang Mai a couple week because of strict situation along the border for migrant people like us. Finally, I can be in my expected place.

I'm glad that the difficult journey did not deter you from coming here. I never knew you managed a small orphanage. It seems like you enjoy working with children. Do you hope to continue to work with children when you go back to your organization? Also, you mentioned "shooting in the dark" with your skill. What do you mean? I look forward to reading more about your experiences and observations during these next ten months and beyond.

 

Thanks a lot teacher, I am still enthusiastic working with the children but I am not sure to retake for children because I also would like my student take responsibility that she has a job in the village without leaving with her family.
Shooting in the dark is, I would like to say, I was managing with guessing and tasting in my work, without systematically. I am very very appreciated your kindness on us with brilliant patience and teaching.
