Maina James Ngowi

Taught history at Embakasi Girls' School

  • 🇰🇪 Embakasi, Nairobi, Kenya
  • 1980 to 2005
  • English, Swahili
For 25 years I was the history teacher at Embakasi Girls' School. I taught primary school children and a few brave older students who wanted extra help. My classroom was always a bit noisy, a bit untidy and usually full of people who came for the biscuits. It has been a good run and I'm grateful for all of it.

Teaching changed me more than I changed anyone, I think.
