Fatuma Nyambura Hamisi

English literature and home economics teacher, Arusha

🇹🇿 Arusha, Arusha, Tanzania
Arusha Girls' School
Since 1993
English, Swahili

For 33 years I have been the English literature teacher at Arusha Girls' School. I teach teenagers and a few brave older students who wanted extra help. Outside the classroom I fix old bicycles. Inside it, I always have a bag of oranges in my drawer. Hearing from old faces is the best part of my week.

More about Fatuma

Some of my favorite memories are from the school trip to the capital, where nothing went to plan and everything turned out fine.

Subjects taught

English literature Home economics Social studies

What gifts mean to Fatuma: A gift would go toward books and supplies for the students I still tutor.
