Student Stories

Each year Literacy Volunteers of Greater Worcester helps adults from all walks of life, all with different needs, become more comfortable with the English language. We challenge our students to dream, we are proud of all their accomplishments and we look forward to helping many more in the very near future.

Kwabena Boakye

February 26, 2015 by Literacy Volunteers

My name is Kwabena Boakye. I am from Ghana, in West Africa. I came to this country because I wanted to build my life here. My tutor’s name is John Matraia. He helps me with speaking, reading and writing English. I take English classes at his office on Tuesday at 10 am.  I want to improve my English because in this country everyone speaks English. To get a job or talk with people in offices, or in stores you need to be able to speak English. I like Literacy Volunteers because they are good people and help me. My dream in this country is to learn wisdom [through my Christian faith].
