The Matumbulu deaf VTC is providing the vocational skills( welding, carpentry, sewing, garden and Tanzanian Ssign Language to  deaf youths, It ,Is located south of Dodoma town 15kms main road from Dodoma to Iringa

We have a total number of 23 students this year.

Thanks to your donations we have now received the modern tools ( teaching and learning tools ) which is TV screen 65 inch, laptop , Wi-Fi and funds to credit the internet bundles for teaching Tanzania Sign Language through several TSL links which will enable the teaching and learning process.

Deaf person with no language tend to see the real picture of the item and they recognize by local signs then the TSL teacher has to give and teach them formal sign related to a shown item.

As deaf people relays on vision only, the TV is going to be a part of their refreshment/ entertainment after the long day activities before bed.

Through the modern tools use we are going to encourage them to love the subject and clear understand among them

Short time teaching and learning process compared to the papers drawings which may have errors, destroyed etc.

Thank you so much for this support for our students which will help them learn so much.

With gratitude
