Shikkhok Raju (Teacher Radu)

This week I started teaching English to our Embassy local employees. This is a volunteer based program and the "students" come from a pretty diverse base. Drivers, electricians, maintenance, janitors, cooks alike stay after work with the hope of learning the English language or polish it if they already know some.

They adopted me very easily as Raju, which I guess is a pretty common Bengali name. For my part, I am just having a lot of fun and happy help a little bit.

So, if you ever run across a Bangladeshi speaking with a heavy Romanian accent, chances are that they have been taught by Shikkok Raju (teacher Radu).
