DAVID (AFGHANISTAN)

JANUARY 2019 TO AUGUST 2019

Hello I’m David. My beautiful teacher and I together chose this name for me. My nationality is Afghan and I’m living in UK at the moment. For almost 8 months, I had this chance to be one of the Habibi Center’s students, so we can say that in this case I was lucky. I don’t know how I can describe teachers there, but I can say everything was perfect and I saw God in their hearts. They were the ones who loved us without us being their family. They taught us language without taking money from us. They provided place for education without asking us for money. The teachers from the Habibi Center were incredibly kind and honest. They were working hard to teach and help their students. That’s why after 2 months I didn’t feel I’m a student in Habibi Center. I felt we are a family from different places full of love and happiness and Habibi Center helped made it possible. Mr. Alex, Mr. Vaggelis and Stephanie looked after us and our lessons, like a bigger sister and brother. Yes, they are my second family and they will be. I have a lot of wonderful memories from there and I will never forget them. I was always ready to go to Habibi Center, I never felt tired. Our teachers were always full of positive energy and smiles on their face. It helped us to learn the lessons easily. When I started to learning English language at Habibi Center I knew only a few words but after a few months I could speak so much. And that was because of my teachers’ efforts for me. I’m not going to say my English is perfect but I can speaking, reading, writing, communicate and make friends with English people. I owe this to the Habibi Center. Doing what I said would not be easy work without the help of the Habibi Center. In addition to language, they taught and showed the true meaning of humanity to me. I was good at growing in my body but they were the ones who helped me grow my mind. I love them and I appreciate them. And a special thanks to those who support the Habibi Center. I love you all.
