About

Class Rank: 1/50 My dream is to become an engineer when I grow up. I know that I have to do good in subjects like Physics, Mathematics and Chemistry. In my life time I learned that difficult subjects were more rewarding when I did not give up. I learned about difficult experiences when I lost my youngest sister. It was so painful to face death when I was still a kid. I feel proud when I succeed when it is difficult now, and even more proud of myself when I received my score as the 3rd in the whole district. After these four years I want to become an engineer, to help the society in different ways and also help my fellow citizens. I also want to become a good citizen of my country.

Hello,

We are almost in the middle of the summer in California now. I wonder how you are doing? You are always in my thought. How is the weather there? How is everything going? Here school is in its summer break, a quite long break, almost two and half months. Some kids go to summer camps and some just do what they like or just relax.

my best wishes for you. Love to hear back from you.

with love,

Snow

Hello School Fund students!

Welcome to a new school year. I hope that your long break was full of family and friends, good work and good times.

I also hope you can reset your mind quickly back to class and lessons, learning and growing in your knowledge base.

I look forward to reading your posts this year, to learning more about you: your joys and hopes and challenges.

I also have some news! Madam Judy is coming to visit Tanzania in July and August!

This is a very good chance to meet a fine lady, a good friend of yours, and a very important person for your future.

Until soon?
Welcome back,

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.

The Chinese always say 90% is hard work and only 10% is your talent. You could accomplish everything as long as you want to.

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 things your did which will make me so proud of you and encourage me to continue to support you for your future school years. My goal for all of you, one day for your to go to College/University, You are somebody everybody will proud of you.

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.

Best regards,
Judy

Hello TSF Students,

It has been way to long since I have written to all of you, my deepest apologizes. I know you are all working hard towards the end of the school year and preparing for your upcoming exams. I am sure this is making you feel so many things both exciting and anxious in many ways. I hope that you are able to find times of peace and fun throughout your day as well as time to study.
Yesterday in the United States we celebrated a day called Mother's Day. It is a day we express our gratitude to our mothers or anyone else in our lives that have helped raise us. I was fortunate enough to get to spend this day with my mother and tell her in person how grateful I am that she created me. I know that not all of you may be able to speak to your mom today or any day possibly, but I know that as a mother myself and speaking with all of you through these journals that I am so proud and grateful for all of your mothers. Wherever they are and wherever you are with them or not, they have helped create such strong impressive individuals.
Keep up all your hard work and you will continue to make your moms, including me, so proud of you for being a TSF student.

Big hugs to each of you!!!!

Hi Everyone,

How are you all doing? How is your semester going? Anything exciting to share? As for me, I had a mid-winter sailing regatta in Florida and I won 8th place in the silver fleet. And I had one week spring break at the beginning of April. I also took AP chemistry test on May 1st. It was a little stressful. A few more weeks my school is going to finish. I am looking forward to summer, although I still don't have a clear plan yet. How about you?

Need to get up early tomorrow. Talk to you later. Looking forward to hearing back from you.

All the best wishes,

Anthony

Dear student,
It has been very long time since last time I wrote to you. I have been out of town attending conferences, doing business and helping with family issues.
I know the new school year began two months ago and I hope you are able to focus on your studies and set goals for yourself. I hope you are doing well this school year.
In your journals I would like to see you are learning, what you like and dislike about the school, your accomplishments, your difficulties your life and your obstacles you face.
I want you to evaluate yourself, what is your strength and weakness, which area do you need to improve yourself. That way I could know who you are and help me to know you better. I wish you have a great year ahead of you and let me know there are anything you need me to help.
Best regards, Judy

Dear Students,

Happy New Year 2017, congratulations on preparing for your exams and welcome back to school !

Here is a thought to begin the year on;

"As a single footstep will not make a path on the earth, so a single thought will not make a pathway in the mind. To make a deep physical path, we walk again and again. To make a deep mental path, we must think over and over the kind of thoughts we wish to dominate our lives".

Henry David Thoreau

be well,
Karen

Dear Students,

As the New Year begins, I make a habit of collecting new wisdom from different sources to guide my life for the New Year. Below are a few of my favorite things I found that I would like to share with you:

1) Experience The Joy Of Learning

Each time you learn something new you gain more knowledge and with more knowledge come more confidence. Learning helps us become more adaptable and flexible to new situations. Learning encourages us to be more creative and innovative in our thinking and we are therefore more comfortable with the unknown.
Reading books is a great way for us to learn. To fully embrace the joy of learning, never stop reading and searching for more knowledge.

2) Touch someone’s soul with your kindness

Random Acts of Kindness. It’s the little things in life that matter most. Hold a door, smile at people. Kindness does not cost much and it touches the soul of another person.

3) When you master your emotions, you master your life

Anger. This is one emotion that is sure to pop up sometime during the day. How you deal with your anger says a lot about who you are as a person. How well do you manage your emotions? Do you have a harsh reaction if someone says something insulting to you? Anger can be a destructive emotion if not managed properly.

4) Respect other people’s opinions even when they differ from your own.

Conflict. It’s rare that two people agree on most topics. Conflict is everywhere. It happens at work, home, with family and friends. Disagreeing isn’t the problem (although most people think it is). The problem is not giving value to the opinions of others.

5) Speech is a powerful tool.

Your words. Watch your words carefully. They can be daggers or building blocks. You can crush the spirit of someone or make them feel like they can conquer the world. Taste your words before you spit them out. Words are your thoughts coming to life. It’s your choice.

What are your favorite quotes and wisdom to live by? I’d love to hear your thought on that.

Cheers,
Jonathan Gilbert

Hi, How are you? Time has passed so quickly this past semester! Less two months the school will end for the year. I know some of you will take the National exam and some of you will take the Final exam. I wish you the best of luck to prepare yourself for the tests.
Please study hard and keep your goals in mind, the time will pass before you know it.
I would like you to write a journal to describe your biggest accomplished for this school year; or the things witch you are most proud. Do you have any goals in mind that you would like to achieve during your summer break?
For myself, I have been busy the past couple months selecting the new A-level and O-level students with Mr. Amos and Mr. Paulo. I welcome all of you to the school fund big family.
I hope you enjoy your final weeks, As always please speak Mr. Amos and Mr. Paulo any major issues you want bring it to my attention.

Hello TSF Students,

I am writing to let you all know that I am thinking of you so much right now. I know you are studying so hard for your upcoming exams. The term "exam" or "test" has always given me so much anxiety and even more fear while I was in school. And now that I am out of school and look back at the time, I know I wasted my focus on the worry. I give you this advice, just breath. You will make it to the other side but you will be better off because you will have accomplished such a huge goal. You have the knowledge and the power to soar through your exams if you choose to have your focus on the right thing, that thing is being the best that you can be no matter the result of the exam. As long as you continue to breath.
You got this!

All my best to each of you.
Amanda

    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.
