Photos of Kibera

Here is the small classroom in which we taught. In this tiny room we have about 20 plus/minus 5 people. Because we don't have enough space, we have to take out the tables and put the chairs into rows, while we taught up front with flipchart papers. We don't have enough chairs and we have to stand a lot or share chairs with 1 or 2 other people.






























Here are our students and us teaching. I don't have a photo of Sarah, Alia and Nancy's teaching in my camera... I know someone else does though. These are also some action photos of our business simulation exercise.



















Here are some photos around the area in which we teach. The children like to stop and chant to us, "How are you? How are you? How are you?" We scared them away by chanting "We are fine, We are fine, We are fine." The yellow matatu (mini bus) is hired by us to take us to Kibera everyday.
































Here are the students singing to us on the last day as well as graduation ceremony for them, when we presented to them a certificate, a pen, a keychain, and a cap.

































More photos of the Kibera community below. Slums are not legal settlements and there are times when the government just comes in and shut things down. Garbage just gets dumped everywhere and burned.
