Isabelle Volunteering Experience in Nepal
Learning and teaching are continuous aspects of life that transcend borders and cultures. Isabelle, a confident and talented 12th-grade student from California, USA, has returned to Nepal this summer to embark on another remarkable journey at Ujjwal Tara School. She is sharing her wealth of knowledge with Nepali children by building on her previous experience teaching students while immersing herself in the rich Nepali culture and teaching methodologies.
Similar to last summer, Isabelle’s primary focus is on STEAM: conducting science and engineering experiments, engaging students with mind-stimulating brainstorming games, and fostering creativity through art activities. In a male-dominated society like Nepal, Isabelle’s confidence and expertise in presenting content serve as a powerful example to Nepali girls and the broader community. This unique opportunity allows Nepali students to gain practical, hands-on knowledge directly from their international friends.
Isabelle’s presence at Ujjwal Tara School has created a platform for enriching cross-cultural exchange. The bond forged between Isabelle and her Nepali counterparts fosters mutual understanding and appreciation. Through their collaborative efforts, they are nurturing a global society of learners, transcending borders, and celebrating the richness of diverse cultures.
This invaluable experience offers a platform for mutual growth and learning. Isabelle generously shares her expertise, while also gaining insights from the Nepali children. Together, they are creating an environment where knowledge and cultural exchange thrive, benefiting both the students and Isabelle.
Isabelle’s second journey is not just about teaching; it is about building bridges of understanding and respect between different cultures. By engaging in this program, she is contributing to a broader global effort to foster educational exchange and mutual respect. This experience is a testament to the power of education in bringing people together, regardless of their backgrounds, to learn from each other and grow together.
Join us in celebrating the remarkable journey of Isabelle and the students at Ujjwal Tara School. Together, they are making a lasting impact, nurturing a community of learners that transcends borders and celebrates the beauty of cultural diversity year after year.
