goods it was two to three weeks about 15 to a maximum of 20 residents in the project, so eventually the majority of people arrived and we started to teach
The classes vary leak risk, depending on the abilities and disabilities of the students . So I have for example a class consisting of three blind girls or women between the ages of 17 and approximately 24 years, that you can draw larger addition and subtraction and simple multiplication and division, yet it is hard because they are always against each other in their native language "Twi" to help, so actually the entire computational work is taken over by one or two people, while the others do nothing or can help. In the "English lessons" the situation is similar, few do the work.
Another example: I teach Mary, a deaf girl, and we count with a maximum of 20 bottle caps and calculate simple additions, English lessons are to design more difficult.
Or, puzzles, bottle caps include, painting - this is an hour with Ramzi, a mentally disabled boy aged between 20 and 25, who is looking forward always, if you spend time with him.
At first I had difficulty gather up my classes, because many have given me false information regarding the name, so I had to find a week that I had taught a student all the time for another, addressed even with the false name, had he felt but always addressed with firm conviction had. The main thing he had fun.
The afternoon design also varies greatly. It is for example impossible to offer a free choice of design afternoon, as students will not come because they are shy to the one part, must get to the other always something served up with a concrete indication, so is the idea of an arbitrary Afternoon program was also discarded quickly.
Instead we call people from whom we can see that they have to do anything to us and just play football, for example, paint, or they can drum. The problem is that rapidly lost interest in an activity is, nevertheless there is always a hard core in any activity that remains until the end.
summary we can say that working with preparing the residents very much fun, but also requires a degree of patience. At first it was difficult to climb through the maze of names and individual needs, but time solves this Problem.
We now have to paint next to the regular classroom a few other things in view, and the manufacture of dream catchers, mandalas, or a Christmas card campaign, we hope to realize as much.
