Her mother’s name is Svay Thady, 38 years old. She is a factory worker, earning $190 per month working in a factory. Sreyneth’s father is staying home and looking after his children. The family is poor and owns a half hectare of farmland for growing rice which can produce about 1 ton of rice per year that can feed the family. Sreyneth does not have enough money to buy school supplies for her studies. However, that does not stop her from coming to school and working her hardest.
Sreyneth wants to be a teacher because she wants to share knowledge and education with the students in her community as well as be able to help financially support her family.
