Syeda Musharrat Jahan, an international relations graduate from Bangladesh University of Professionals (BUP), also analumna of John McCain Study of the US Institutes on Rule of Law and Public Service, made an example of enlightening orphan adolescent girls on life and language.
Musharrat utilized the fund she received as a John McCain Study alumna from Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs of US Department of State via their partner Meridian International Center for making a project titled “Pass the Light”.
Under the supervision of Bangladesh Shishu Academy, she conducted five day training from 21st to 25th of this month for 14 teenage girls of 6th to 9th grade at their residence hall in Azimpur Shishu Nibash maintaining WHO health guidelines on Covid-19.
'The girls' enthusiasm exclaimed me during the training on communicative English and life lesson' said Musharrat with a gratifying smile.
In two 45 minute sessions each day the girls learned more on truthfulness, unity, time management, complimenting, appreciating and being kind to each other through storytelling and fun activities. They also took lessons on effective English communication including writing applications and letters, formats of dialogues and questions and a special session on measures to prevent Covid-19.
A happy Musharrat also supplied surgical masks, hand sanitizers, hand washing liquid, paper tissue, sanitary napkins and some books for the participants from the project.
