Teacher from Nilton Mario, from Lomba Tantum, seeks support to create an explanation room in Lomba Tantum
Nova Sintra, October 22, 2023 - Nilton Mário, a teacher graduated from the University of Cape Verde (UNICV), is appealing to the community and the general public for support to set up an explanation room for children in Lomba Tantum .
Nilton Mário, born on the island of Brava and raised in the town of Lomba Tantum, faced significant challenges in finding employment opportunities as a teacher in the area. However, his desire to contribute to the education of his community remained unwavering.
Last year, Nilton Mário dedicated his time to working with illiterate young people and adults in his locality, helping them learn to read and write. His passion for education led him to share his knowledge, but he didn't stop there. Parents and guardians from Lomba Tantum began to approach him, asking for help to support their children with schoolwork. Many local children have difficulty understanding letters, words and performing basic mathematical calculations.
To meet this growing need, Nilton Mário decided to create an explanation room at Cooperativa de Lomba, which has a suitable space for this purpose, with a bathroom and the necessary infrastructure for classes. However, he faces a fundamental difficulty: he does not have the financial resources to purchase a board and desks so that the children can participate in classes.
Therefore, Nilton Mário is appealing to the local community, charities and the general public for support in acquiring these essential materials. His vision is to open a tutoring room that will help the children of Lomba Tantum overcome their difficulties at school and improve their writing and calculation skills.
Nilton Mário believes that, with the support of the community, they can create an educational environment where the children of Lomba Tantum can flourish academically. Anyone interested in helping can contact Nilton Mário to contribute to this noble cause.
This is an inspiring example of the power of education and an individual's desire to make a difference in their community. Together, we can help make education accessible and effective for children in Lomba Tantum, Cape Verde.
