Bolivia

One day, while at the market, I met an Alfalit teacher visiting the community. The teacher told me about the new literacy classes starting right here in the community for anyone that wanted to enroll. So, I registered immediately, and at that moment, the teacher encouraged me and told me that I would learn very quickly. …I’ve learned how to write my name, and I’m learning basic math. I am no longer afraid to talk to people. I feel confident and happy, and no one can ever humiliate me again. I want to continue studying and learning everything I can so I can one day go to college”.
