For this week's Feature Friday, we want to introduce you to a very special person, one how has taken our Literacy Program to new heights.Ruth Nakkidugge is an English teacher and librarian at Mukono Boarding Primary School. Having already grown a culture of reading at her own school, she was the perfect choice to begin running workshops at our other Resource Center schools. When she visited Seattle in 2018, she not only took advantage of the opportunity to learn from other teachers, but also shared those lessons with her colleagues in Uganda through workshops she ran every term.According to Ruth, “teachers have now become resourceful to their neighboring schools and learning has become so interesting with the methods they have acquired in workshops." What started with one incredible educator has now had an impact on dozens of teachers and thousands of students throughout Mukono and Uganda.You can read more about Ruth and her workshops on our blog, www.sisterschools.org/a-totally-changed-teacher/#SisterSchools #openingeyeschanginglives #compassion #service #socialresponsibility #uganda #seattle #local #dualimpact ...
