Indonesia is my mother’s homeland and one of my favorite countries. Since I was young, I had learned a lot about the country and become interested in it. For a long time I had wanted to do something for the country and people there, and I thought volunteering(做志愿者)would be a good and fun way to do so.

I received the greatest pleasure from being with the children.

Teaching my first English class in Aceh was exciting but I was rather nervous. As time passed by, I learned how to be a better teacher. Teaching was actually the most enjoyable of my many responsibilities(责任).

Many children were shy at first. But when they relaxed, they would start talking and telling you a lot of funny things. I believe we were helping them build up their confidence.

For the children who are more in need, The Education Program (TEP) will collect donations (募捐) to help them.

As a volunteer, I had to visit the TEP children at home once a month and help them write a thank-you letter to their sponsors. This was a way for the children to communicate with their sponsors. Sometimes the sponsors would write back to the children. Seeing the children’s happy faces, I had a great sense of pleasure.

The world of the-out-of door is full of secrets. There are so many secrets, and they are so interesting that thousands of men and women, boys and girls are busy studying them. All around us are birds, animals, trees arid flowers. The facts about how they live and grow are interesting.

Do you know that one of the great presidents of the US spent hours and hours studying birds? A businessman lives near New York City. He became so interested in insects that he began to collect them. He now has over one thousand different kinds of them. He keeps them carefully in glass boxes.

Now come with me, and I will help you find some of nature’s secrets. Let us go quietly through the forests and fields. Here we shall find how a hare tells the other hares where there is danger. We shall follow a mother bear and her young ones when they try to look for food and get ready for their long sleep. We shall watch bees dancing in the air to let the other bees where they can find food. I will show you many other interesting things, but the best thing that I can teach you is to keep your eyes and ears open when you go outdoors.
