โI live near the IAIN campus, so it is easy to find students from nearby families. Teaching English to junior high students is enjoyable, and the parents here are very supportive. The income helps cover my tuition.โ
โIn Habibie's birthplace, children have a strong interest in physics. I feel proud to help nurture that interest. Parepare's compact size makes it easy for me to move from one student to another in a short time.โ
โKindergarten children in Lumpue come to my house after the evening prayer, and we learn to recognize letters through play. For someone with a toddler of my own, this rhythm fits perfectly: my little one stays within sight while the teaching pay adds to the family income.โ
โThree years ago I guided only two neighbor children in Lakessi. Now I have sixteen students, and some have already memorized several juz. Each time one reads the Quran fluently, the parents recommend me to their relatives, and so it goes from house to house.โ
