My last few days in Lesoit I was
introduced to the students Chris would be teaching for the larger remainder of
his trip. I traveled to the schools with him early in the morning. These two
days would serve as a brief series of summer school sessions. It would be my
first time trying my hand at teaching which was all too exciting and interesting
being the first days we had to use charcoal for chalk, on a black board, which
actually was really effective, that is if you had the right piece of charcoal.

Farewell to my masai friends; Franks Family and friends. |
We began to teach them Chemistry,
Biology, and Physics. Three subjects which weren’t easy to dive into especially
considering our limited skills in Swahili. Although these days were fun;
bonding, tutoring, and learning with the students, it was very clear how
difficult the days ahead would be for my friend, I had the easy way out, a 18
hour plane trip back to the states in another day.
Special Thanks:
Overall, my trip to Tanzania was amazing
and ultimately indescribable, though I dedicated this blog to doing so. I owe
the amazing time I had in Tanzania to my peers! ; Ali Anger, Bruce Winters,
Haley Rademacher, Katie Picket, Brooke Farrell, Kaka Jay, Jessie Fredlund, Molly
Ryan, and Laura Damon. Sorry I didn’t write more about you guys! Forgive my
Laziness! To my house Mother and Brother Mama Mganga, and Juliuis,

Thanks for working through my immaturity! my close friend Chris-let’s grab a
drink this weekend!, and finally, last but most certainly not least to Mrs.
Askew who I owe the entire trip to. So in my opinion it’s only right that I
dedicate this blog to them, who facilitated the sum of my experiences and work
during my study abroad, I send my greatest appreciation, Thank you. And thank
you all for reading! Stay tuned.
