Honest experiences from teachers who joined in Tabalong earlier on.
“I study at STIA while teaching Mathematics to junior high kids in Murung Pudak. Because the students live close to my boarding house, I still make time for campus activities. It fits a student like me well.”
Amrina R.
Mathematics Tutor
“Most of my students are children of employees whose parents work shifts. They need a patient study partner to explain things again. Since I focused on teaching, my time is far more organized and still productive.”
Hasto S.
Physics Tutor
“Reciting the Quran is part of everyday life in Kelua, so interest never fades. I guide more than a dozen children in improving their tajwid, and each time one finishes a reading, my heart feels light and grateful.”

“Many parents in Tanjung want their children to speak English fluently from an early age. I help them through simple conversation and steady practice. Seeing a student speak up without embarrassment is a reward of its own.”
