Am working at the Abe Halperin School with children around nine years of age who have difficulty with reading. Usually, I take four or five students at a time from their regular classroom and we sit under a large tree to practice a few language skills. The going is occasionally slow but I'm hoping that at least a little extra emphasis can't hurt. Unfortunately, my timing as a volunteer teacher is not the best; exams are being given in a couple of days and a long spring break is to follow. Will try to check on the holiday schedules of other schools in the area as well.
Visited one called Etoile Royale yesterday afternoon and maybe after their break, teaching there may be a possibility. On the way home, Jim and I grabbed a taxi and I unknowingly left my trusty cell phone in the cab. When I discovered it missing later in the evening, we called my number from Jim's cell and amazingly, a kind and honest gentleman answered - our taxi driver from a few hours before. As providence would have it, he turned out to be the father of one of the students in the Abe Halperin School and we made arrangements to meet at 7 AM this morning to reunite me with my phone. I know Someone is watching over me.
