Dewaki attended our first PiSL Teacher Training in April 2013 as a substitute. A few months ago, the main teacher moved away and Dewaki took over this role. Dewaki has attended all the teacher refresher trainings that PiSL has provided over the last four years, so she has a good understanding of how to implement the PiSL Curriculum. Her classroom is neat and well organized. She is proud to be the new preschool teacher in her village and she is committed to doing a good job with her young students.​ Dewaki currently has partial sponsorship (half her salary). Can you help with a gift of $360 or any amount and help us pay her full salary.

Pyara attended our second PiSL Teacher Training in April 2014. Pyara is a sweet, engaging young woman who is new to teaching. However, she has many innate qualities of a good teacher. She is caring and nurturing, but also encourages her young ones to try new things. Pyara's classroom is neat and clean with her materials stored safely in the locked cabinet after hours. When watching Pyara with her students, it is obvious that she loves being a teacher!

Bimala is our newest teacher. The previous teacher, Om Kumari, recently moved with her family to the south of Nepal. Bimala was interviewed and subsequently chosen by the PiSL staff to become the new preschool teacher. Bimala attended the PiSL Refresher training in May 2017. We visited her classroom several days later and it was so delightful to see Bimala. Her classroom clean, organized and beautifully decorated. She had her instructional materials carefully organized in the locked cabinet. When we arrived, she was teaching her students how to use puzzles she had just received in the PiSL training. Bimala is very excited to be a new teacher and it will be a pleasure to watch her grow!

Pabitra attended our third PiSL Teacher Training in April 2015. Pabitra was initially quiet and shy. However, she is a very curious and eager to learn. She is a new early childhood educator so she is learning many new things about children and teaching techniques. On our last trip to Nepal, we visited Pabitra's classroom. It was neat, clean and beautiful! She was so proud of it and her students who showed us how they carefully place their name cards in the pocket chart each morning. It is a joy to see Pabitra grow and mature as a teacher!

Hira attended our third PiSL Teacher Training in April 2015. Hira is a new teacher and eager to learn. Her village has a beautiful, well-built community center that was used only several times a month for meetings. So the community members decided to use the building as the early childhood center. It is clean, bright, safe and dry. Hira has a wonderful environment to teach in and she will excel as her skills develop.

Beli attended our first PiSL Teacher Training in April 2013. Beli was very quiet throughout the training. However, at each refresher training (we have had seven subsequent trainings), Beli became more open and willing to participate. She is wonderful with her students and loves telling stories using the Nepali felt finger puppets. Over time, Beli has become one of our best teachers.

Bina attended our third PiSL Teacher Training in April 2015. Bina is an enthusiastic and eager learner. She is new to teaching so she has much to learn, but she is willing to try her best to become a great early childhood educator. Bina’s community was provided the materials to build a new preschool classroom. It was not quite completed before the earthquake, so there was limited damage. The community has been able to repair it so it is safe. Bina is now teaching!
