About

Odilio is a spirited young man with a great sense of humor. He wowed the Few for Change staff with his sincerity and his clear writing voice that came through brilliantly in his application. Odilio is 15 years old and lives in Hato Rincon. He dreams of being a Spanish teacher one day and he knows that it is important to study so that he can "bring [his] family a better life and help [his] community excel." His teacher described Odilio as having "excellent qualities", saying that he is "dynamic, responsible, cooperative…an outstanding young man." Showing his sense of humor, Odilio closed his application to Few For Change by writing, in English, "My favorite subject is SPANISH". That made the Few For Change staff all laugh, and showed them that he was a great candidate.

Hi Odilio,
It is good to hear from you! I understand that you want to be a Spanish teacher? Have you ever had any good Spanish teachers that inspired you to do this? Or are you inspired because you've never had a good Spanish teacher :)

I hope school is going well! Looking forward to hearing from you again.

Best,
Christi
