By Johanna Barba | Julio Otoni Center Team
We have a wonderful volunteer all the way from Sri Lanka who has been teaching coding to the children at Julio Otoni, as you may know from our last report, when he had just come on board. Classes have been progressing wonderfully - the kids are very excited and have taking a liking to Ahmed (who they keep calling "Amor" or "love" in portuguese, since they cannot pronounce his name!).
The kids find it especially fun because it is also an opportunity for them to learn English and teach Ahmed Portuguese, since they use google translate to communicate. Gradually though, Ahmed says they have been learning the logical language of coding, which he believes is truly a language of the future.
Thank you all for your donations, we will keep you updated on how classes are going!
