She hopes to gain secondary education and study keenly to become a gynecologist because she wants to save the lives of mothers and children in her country.

Greetings Mueni! I am so happy to hear you will be a teaching assistant at the Mbaikini School. I will be traveling to Wamunyu in March and I hope to see you then. The Mbaikini School was the first school I ever visited on my first trip to Kenya. It has a special place in my heart. I heard there was training today in Wamunyu. I hope it was helpful. Try to keep reading yourself and encourage your students to read. It is helpful in so many ways! Thanks for writing! Sharon

    Fiona

    Kenya

    Fiona is the last born in a family of three. She lives with both her parents who are casual labourers. Her mother had a major surgery on her left hand in 2020. This made them sell part of their property to take care of the medical bills and thus reducing their income significantly and again making it very difficult for them to take care of the education bills of their children. Fiona drew her inspiration to pursue success from her Math teacher and she aspires to be a civil engineer to make contributions in the development of infrastructure in her village.
