“I am excited about beginning my studies for many reasons. The first is that here, right in front of where I work, is where Amextra gives classes. My friends and the kids come to the classes. For me, [school is] important because I don’t know how to do math. Where I work, I don’t know if they pay me what they owe me. Thank you to everyone for giving me this opportunity”.
