โEvery afternoon after Asr my house fills with children studying Iqro and tahsin. Demand in Bayongbong never fades because the tradition of Quran study here runs deep. It gives me meaningful activity along with income that helps my family.โ
โMany junior and senior high students in Garut are shy about speaking English, so my job is to make them brave first. Bit by bit they grow confident. The flexible schedule suits me while I am still at university.โ
โWhat keeps me going is the moment a kindergartner who was once puzzled suddenly strings letters into a word. I run my classes in the morning around Leles, so my afternoons stay free to manage the house. The parents here are also open and easy to work with.โ
โIn Cibatu, a bit far from the city centre, tutors are still few. I get plenty of students preparing for university entrance. I can withdraw my pay whenever I need it, so I never have to wait for a fixed date.โ
