โAfter studying away in Medan, I wondered whether there would be any students back in my hometown. As it turns out, the need for science lessons to prepare for the UTBK here is fairly busy. My weeks are now almost full, and I still get to be near my family.โ
โHelping kindergarten children spell their first letters and numbers always stirs my heart. I can easily shift the teaching hours around the household, so my family stays cared for while I keep a worthwhile pursuit.โ
โIn a trading city like Tebing Tinggi, some families want their children to master Mandarin early. Teaching the language I love while watching my students grow more confident in speaking it is deeply satisfying.โ
โEvery afternoon I guide the children of Rambutan in reading the Quran and memorizing short verses. The demand never fades because people here hold religious education dear. It feels peaceful, with worship and sustenance moving hand in hand.โ
