Enjoy a Good Book in a Quiet Atmosphere

Funded Oct 26, 2017

Working at an inner city school in Texas can be challenging. Having a devastating hurricane hit the area added to the challenge. With most of our students coming from limited income families and facing the struggle of learning English, reading and hearing the English language read to them is crucial.

With headphones available to my students, I can see more concentration as they access and choose e-books to listen to and read. This week I had a lesson where a nonspeaking website was used and the students wanted to know when they were going to get their headphones.

It is so nice to see my students concentrating more as they read. With weather issues and building construction going on in the school, the library is being used for a variety of activities. The headphones really help to keep the students focused.

Thank you for your generous contribution and giving me the opportunity to help my students improve their grasp on the English language. My excited students send their thanks also.”

With gratitude,
