Meet Jeni
Jeni is one of our newer teachers. The previous teacher at her school relocated to Kathmandu with her family. The volunteer teacher did not want the full time position so the job opening was announced in the village. Several young women were interviewed by PiSL staff and Jeni was selected. She attended the PiSL Teacher Refresher Training in May 2017. We have visited her classroom several times and worked directly with her to explain the PiSL Curriculum and answer questions. Jeni is excited to be an early childhood educator and she is working hard to provide quality early childhood education to the children in her community. |

Meet Rima
Rima attended our first PiSL Teacher Training in April 2013. Initially, Rima was shy and reluctant to participate. As the training progressed, she gradually gained more confidence. She demonstrated true leadership when she was asked to gather the residents of her community to begin the process of building a new preschool classroom. On the first community workday, only a small group of women arrived, but Rima was undeterred. Under her leadership, the community members (including the men!) completed the classroom in less than a month. She teaches 14 students at her school, Shideshowr Early Childhood Center, in Taluwa VDC. Rima is now a self-assured leader and a good teacher. |
Meet Hira
Hira attended our third PiSL Teacher Training in April 2015. Hira is a new teacher and eager to learn. Her village has a beautiful, well-built community center that was used only several times a month for meetings. So the community members decided to use the building as the early childhood center. It is clean, bright, safe and dry. Hira has a wonderful environment to teach in and she will excel as her skills develop.
