Oscar is a child with many learning problems. Partnered with his poor knowledge of
the basic things that a child at his age should know has made the difficulties worse.
We have tried several methods to help Oscar. With the new methods he has been
improving slowly. However Oscar now knows how to write his name and some other
words and he knows some numbers. He is part of a special program where he learns
and develops new skills in language therapy.

My experience in first grade has been very special and rewarding as well as
challenging because the children who come here to El Hogar have a lot of
difficulties because they haven’t done pre-school. Everyday I put all my effort
and it is my challenge to teach them not only the academic content but also
teach them how valuable each of them is as a human being.
When I remember how we started first grade in the beginning of the year and
I see the all of their improvements I feel so satisfied to see everything that my
little ones have learned so far.
I am very happy because I know that God gave me this opportunity to work
here especially with first grade.
 Gladys JImenez
I have had this great opportunity to work here at El Hogar as an English
teacher as well as translating letters to and from sponsors.
For me it is so rewarding when I see the children speaking English with
the missionaries who visit us here at El Hogar because it is the result of
my hard work inside the classrooms.
Additionally, it is so important for me when I see the children growing not
only in age but also in wisdom and Faith to God.
Finally, one of my great achievements here has been start teaching English
to the new kids with no previous knowledge and to see how motivated
they are, and also to see how they want to learn everyday more and
more.
Ethel Sierra
This is my second home. This is the place where I grew up both professionally and spiritually.
Working here at El Hogar and teaching Computers I learned to value all the blessings from God.
I am blessed by having the opportunity to teach the children the basics in computers and how
they can make presentations in PowerPoint, investigation and other programs.
My experience has been great to be part of El Hogar family, and my hope and prayers are for this
project to continue helping children.
I thank everyone who makes this project possible.
