“When I was in 2nd and 3rd grade, I didn’t know how to read. Since the Tsehai Loves Learning program started, I have become very fast at reading”
“My children are trying to decide which TLL book to pick for today’s Amharic session. Believe it or not, since we started working with these books my little ones ask me regularly (almost begging) to have Amharic class scheduled for the day”
