โI used to be an honorary teacher with minimum wage. Now I'm a full-time tutor earning twice as much. UTBK tutoring demand in Makassar is really high, especially before SNBP.โ
โI initially registered casually while waiting for civil service results. Turns out being a tutor is really enjoyable! Now I'm hesitant to become a civil servant because my income already exceeds their salary.โ
โMy pesantren background in South Sulawesi shaped how I guide children through their Quran recitation. What sets my heart at ease is how deeply Makassar families honor religious education, and the religious traditions of Makassar make every recitation session feel meaningful.โ
โBetween managing the household, I found a new rhythm through teaching early literacy. Watching kindergarten and preschool children slowly spell out their first letters is a satisfaction all its own. New housing estates keep rising in Biringkanaya, and the young families there are eager to support their children's learning.โ
