About

Randolf lives with his mother, father and 7 siblings in a small shack just outside of Kissemah Village. Before attending Mawuvio's Outreach Programme, Randolf had never attended school before. He is a deaf student and his family could not afford to send him to a specialized school. At Mawuvio's Outreach Randolf receives one on one tutoring with ASL teachers and in just two years has learned how to read, write and sign fluently. He aspires to become a teacher for other deaf Ghanaians in the future.

Have you always been deaf? I don't know if your internet is strong enough to get youtube.com, but if it is, there are videos of story tellers who tell stories in American Sign Language, if you are interested. I searched for ASL stories and saw a bunch.
I donated some money for your fund and hope you are enjoying school.

From my son who chose to fund you after we read your story:

Hi Randolf - my name is Jahan. I am 4 years old. I like when my mom scratches my back, how about you? I like to play soccer, swim, and am learning to play ukulele. Do you like to play sports or music?

Hi Randolf. We saw your profile by chance and saw that you have the same birthday as our first son Peter. We thought it was fate that we help you with your education. He is 16, in his third year of high school and learning to drive a car. When he is not in school his favorite thing to do is to go skiing. Here is a picture of Peter and his brother and sisters. It is wonderful that you enjoy school and want to help others by becoming a teacher. What do you like to do when you are not in school? With good luck and warm wishes.

Hey Randolf,

How are you? My name is Tim and I work for the school fund. It's great that you love school! I really enjoy school as well and am going to go back to school next year (I've been working this year, but I miss school). How old were you when you learned sign language? It's great that you want to be a teacher, I also want to be a teacher.

    Experiences in my life are when I failed my examination during primary education and also when my parents failed to pay food for me. My difficult experiences in my life are when my parents have insufficient enough money to pay for all my basic needs at school such as food and other school contributions. The thing that makes me feel so proud of myself is when I succeeded in joining O-level education. This makes me feel that I will, I must, I can do everything. The most memorable and happiest thing in my life will be to reach my dream of being a doctor general so as I can help other people in society. My future dream is to be a GOOD surgical doctor. After me reaching my dream, I will give back help to my society and family, but also to WEF. I need to work hard upon reaching my dream in my life. Once I get chance to have power of changing anything in country, I will improve the education system by converting science subjects from theory to practical. In most of our schools, they teach science subjects mostly theoretically. I will start from there because as we know education is the key to every success in our people.

    Notable experiences in my life are, first, passing my standard seven examination and, second, entering secondary school. My most difficult experience was when I started to learn English. I have learned that if you want to do something, you have to work hard. I felt proud was when I entered secondary school. My most memorable and happiest thoughts are from when I celebrated at my birthday party. My dream is to be an electrical engineer. I will get there through studying hard and doing well in science subjects. If I had the power to change my country, I would like to improve the electricity supply especially in rural areas because there are shortages of electric power.

    The experience that I had early in life was to score good marks in my class, whereby I got good grades which encouraged me to study hard in class. The difficult experience that occurred in my life was an accident on my way back home. I learnt that I should not play again in bad areas. In my life I am proud of myself. I was getting low marks in class but now I have managed to improve a lot. The most memorable and happiest thing in my life is to play football. It exercises my body regularly and hence strengthens my body system. My dream is to become a mechanical engineer. The best way to reach it is through studying hard in school, in physics, mathematics and chemistry. If I had power in my country, I would change the education system of the country so that it helps graduates to depend more on self-employment.
