Atieno Naliaka Kariuki

25 years teaching English literature in Gulu

🇺🇬 Gulu, Northern Region, Uganda
Gulu Boys' School
Since 1988
English

I came to teaching late, after working as a bank clerk, and 38 years later I still can't imagine doing anything else. I've coached the school's netball team for a few seasons. We lost more than we won, and I'd do it all again.

More about Atieno

If you were in my Year 9 class, you probably remember the volcano experiment that got a bit out of hand.

Subjects taught

What gifts mean to Atieno: If you do send something, I'll put it toward a small scholarship for a student who needs it.
