  • 🐖Meet San Tuch and her family🐖 (A1, beginner, present simple, short answers)

    • a story of success

    This is the story of San Tuch and her family.

    San Tuch and her husband cannot read or write. Life is very difficult for them. They do not have a steady job, and they do not have many chances to change their life.

    The Shinta Mani Foundation gives them a small business loan. With this loan, they start a small pig farm. This farm changes everything for their family.

    Now, San Tuch and her husband live in a safe home. They have a steady income from their pig farm. They buy food, save money, and take care of their children. They are very proud because their children go to school every day.

    This simple loan helps them build a better future.
    Together, Shina Mani Foundations help more families start small businesses at home, so parents stay with their children and build a strong, happy life.

  • 🥰🐔🥕Meet Lina, life in the countryside, a series , part 3/3, evening 🥕🐔🥰(A1, beginner, present simple, short answers)

    🌙 – evening in the village


    In the evening, she takes a simple bath. She uses water from a well or a river. After bathing, she helps her mother or grandmother prepare the evening meal. Dinner is the main time for the family. They eat together and talk. This is a happy and important time.

    After dinner, she has a little free time. She plays simple games outside with other children. They use sticks, rocks, or small toys. She also talks with neighbors on the village road. Sometimes, she studies her schoolwork by a small lamp. There are not many books, and extra lessons are rare.

    She goes to bed early, around 8:00 PM or 9:00 PM. Her life is simple but full of learning and family love. She learns to be responsible and to help her family every day.
