The School Fund

About

My dad left me when I was in my mother’s womb and made my life hard. Another difficult time was the death of my grandmother. I want to be an engineer. I have a dream of helping other people, especially if they have a shortage of school fees so they can afford education costs. In order for me to achieve my dreams I must get an education and study hard so as to get a job and be able to support others. I feel so good because my dreams are going to be true. I have passed the national exam and am a student with a high level of education. A seminar on leadership taught me various leadership styles and I know how to lead others in my society. The happiest moment in my life was when I heard that The School Fund could sponsor me. TSF helps me to afford an education. I got the opportunity to learn without disturbance. Two years from now, I will be a university student somewhere in our country.

Hi Jenny i hope that you are fine as i am today how is your health proceeding. i want to share with you about what i have been studying through rachel pi few weeks i read about coordination in biology
coordination is interlinking of body parts to perform a certain function there are two kinds of coordination which are
1;coordination in plant
2;coordination in animal but today i will deal specific in animal
it involve chemical and electrical control
Chemical control is aided by a chemical substance called neurotransmiter which is composed of acetylcholine and electrical which is aided by electrical signal called impulse
there are factors that affect transmission of impulses these includes
1;Transmission speed
2;stimulation
3.temperature
4;refractory period as all of these factors increases also the rate of transmission increase and when all of these factors decrease the rate of transmission decrease
The information are transmited through neurone .neurone are of three types namely 1;relay neurone 2;motor neurone 3;sensory neurone .That is a little bit about coordination next time when i get another chance i will share more with you about how human being regulate body temperature and blood pressure as well as PH of body fluids .That is all for today good afternoon

Hello students,

I finally got back to the US last week.
It has been a very long trip to Tanzania this year total three weeks.

I was very happy to meet all of you and know everyone better.

My trip started from Karatu. I visited 5 schools in Karatu and I learn where do you go to school every day.

I am very happy to know all of you are doing well and every of you has a dream that you want to be successful one day. I encourage all of you to try your best to reach you own destination.

The get together was so well prepared and done by each of you. I am very happy to saw all your science presentations and poems you wrote to TSF and me. I will treasure them all my life.

I can say I am very proud to all of you. Keep up the good work I want to see each of you one day get to
good University/College to reach your own dream.

After Karatu, I went to ARUSHA attended the TED Global conference and visited couple schools in ARUSHA.
I enjoyed the TED conference this year. It was focused on the Africa, specially in agriculture, health and education.

Mr. Amos was a volunteer there, he had great experience being this Global conference and met people from around the world.
He had a life experience at the conference, where he was able to meet a group of bright inventive and talented group of people.

Later I went to Iringa. Iringa almost the second hometown for me. I have been there six times.
I visited all 8 schools in Iringa and meet all of you in person. I was very happy to meet you.

I had a great time at the get together party. All of you did a wonderful presentation. I am very happy to know all of you had fun that night.

My this year Tanzania trip was set MMM computer center for most of the 13 TSF schools.
At Iringa, We build total 5 new computer center in Iringa girls, Klerruu, Lugalo, Ebenezer, Miyomgoni and Update one MMM center at Ummusalama. We build one new computer center at Karatu Secondary School and update one MMM center at Ganako.

I am very proud of building the MMM computer center in most of the TSF schools. I really want all of you to go to the computer center to learn every subject you are interested from the RACHEL PLUS.
In the future everyone work will be on the computer. I hope that every single of you tell me what do you learn from the RACHEL PLUS.
I would like you could to start the debate team in your school so you all could practice how to speak in the public. Have the Math Club and challenge each other on the Math.

They will all benefit your long-term confidence.

I hope I will hear from all of you soon.

Dear Students

Once again, I read your letters with pleasure. You all have interesting subjects to discuss, and you express what you understand so well.
Are you learning your subjects is English??

I’ve been working in my garden several hours a day. This year we’ve had a lot of rain (the first year of rain in quite a while). The apricots are huge! The size of oranges. I am so happy with them because they are my favorite fruit. Today I made apricot jam.
Tomorrow I’ll make more. The fruit is falling off the tree because they are so heavy. (I only have one tree) It’s amazing because the tree has never given fruit before.
I’m wondering now if you have apricots? Maybe not. I don’t remember seeing any in Tanzania.

Is it a hot season in Tanzania now?

I think about you all, and am so proud of your efforts and accomplishments. Please write again, and tell me about yourselves.

Sincerely, Susan

Judy

My fellow students, time just flew so fast. This semester is close to its end. You all must be very busy preparing for your final exams.

I hope you are all doing a great job this semester. Some of you graduated at end of the last year. You must very anxious waiting for your notification which A-level school you are assigned to.

Doesn't matter where you are going, the most important is the goals your set and your determination to accomplish your golds.

During your break, I would like you to write down what your major accomplishing and one thing which makes you proud of yourself that you would like to share with everybody.

The way to do is that you set your final goal, the goal between one step a time and try reach it then go for the next goal, eventually, you will reach your final destination.

Dear Students
I hear that you are leaving school soon for your long semester break. I hope you get a well-deserved rest, but if you can't rest, I hope your break is productive.
I think you all deserve special support and recognition for the very hard work you are putting in to get your education. I encourage you to keep trying, and see each challenge as an opportunity to learn and grow. You will be stronger and more capable to meet the challenges of adulthood if you can face the difficulties today.
Someone said that the shortest meditation is taking a deep breath. I love to do this when I feel stressed.
I’m lucky enough to be able to take some trips this year. I’m going to Croatia, Morocco and India.
I’ll report back to you about each trip.
Thank you for sharing what you are learning. I always learn from you. You are always welcome to share with me your concerns, difficulties and joys also.
Best to you all. Susan

Dear student,
It has been a long time since I last wrote to you. I am very sorry! It is not because I forgot nor because of my laziness, but because I was tied up with my personal problem. My aging mother has been in and out of hospital many times for health issues, and I am her major care giver. Thanks for everyone's prayer,she makes small improvement.
Wish you do your best on your learning and make great effort preparing your test. You have big potential that's why TSFTZ funded you.
Please keep on writing your journal entries, we enjoy reading them and will try to write back to you at our best ability.
-Jenny

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.
