About

Farhan comes from a nomadic family, which includes his mother, two grandmothers, two grandfathers, five sisters, and nine brothers. Being from a nomadic family, Farhan is especially excited to have earned a scholarship to study at our school and have the opportunity to improve his and his family’s future. Farhan’s biggest accomplishment is learning English and continuing to improve his language abilities. When he first arrived at school, he had trouble understanding English, but he now feels comfortable learning in English. Now that he is comfortable with English, he enjoys helping his peers who are having trouble learn English so that they can do better in school. In the future, Farhan hopes to be a School Headmaster so that he can help other students learn.

This year has been very challenging, because it is the first year of upper school. Doing a lot of homework and writing many essays, which made me to think every thing deeply and teach me how to manage my time and have motivations. but on the other hand it has been excited year to participate the primary tutoring and teach or help the young kids from the village so that they can get opportunities like this. I am not educate only to have a better future but I usually try to help the others around me, and that is the real meaning to be educated person.
