In Their Own Words. . .
| On The new building: | “ I like the new building because it is concrete and very nice. It is very different than before, when we sometime used a building and sometimes had class under the trees.”
|
| On being a school director: | “I became the school director because I have been teaching the longest. I am also a bit older and more experienced than the others.
|
| “ I like teaching Khmer and mathematics best. I want my students to know Khmer well and t know how to calculate. The students like learning Khmer because they like the stories that are part of the curriculum. They don’ like applies science because they find it difficult to understand.”
