About

Teresa was born in the city of Beira, Sofala province, on February 7, 2007, where she lived with her parents. They divorced in 2014 when she was 7 years old, due to social problems. Teresa, lives with her disabled father and her 2 brothers. The house consists of 2 bedrooms, 1 living room, an outside bathroom and no piped drinking water. She has a good and intelligent behavior, likes to play with her friends and in her free time she likes to review school subjects and helps with the house duties. Her father is an upholsterer for sofa chairs and does his activities in the backyard of his house. What he earns with his work is not enough to support the family. Her preferred subject at school is History and she wants to become a Teacher. During 2020, due to COVID 19, the students had to study at home, going weekly to the school to buy brochures and copies of tests. Most of the kids could not afford it.

I hope 2024 treats me well to finish my studies pursue my dream training in order to help my family.
A hug for you and your family.

Just writing to let you know that I have just made a contribution to your school fund for next year. I've been donating to your fund in the past and I will do the best I can to help with your tuition for 2024.
Dear Christiane, Ramona and Leonore,
Thank you so much for supporting my schooling. It is a big help for our family to know that I can stay in school.
Dear Sponsors,
Please don't miss tomorrow 17th of August! Your support is my salvation.
Dear Sponsors. First of all, I would like to know how the health conditions are with your family, also to know how you have seen this situation of COVID-19. My family and I are in good health.
It was a little normal when I went to school, at least twice a week, but then in July, schools in our city have been closed due to the COVID-19 pandemic situation.
I am attending grade 9. I have taken copies and manuals to read at home, during this quarantine period while we waited for the resumption of classroom classes, that finally happened.
I would like this pandemic to end forever. Thank you for everything you do for me.
My name is Teresa Rodrigues, 8th grade student in 2020 at Ponta-Gêa secondary school. I am a new beneficiary of ASEM in the T.S.F project. I hope that you find yourself in good health together with your family.
I and my family are well despite the pandemic. I have been studying at home with brochures since March. The face-to-face classes that are being hold are the exam classes only (10th and 12th grade). I would like this pandemic to end forever, it has last for over 6 months now and I really would like to go back to attend classes at the school. I thank you for your support and will study hard.

    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.
