Anan lives and studies at the foundation. Every morning he wakes up early and eats breakfast with his friends. At 8 o’clock he goes to class. The teacher teaches him English words for hotel work, like “guest,” “room,” and “clean.” He learns to say hello and welcome to visitors.

After that, Anan studies how to work in a hotel. Some days he learns about the front desk. He learns to smile, speak politely, and help guests. Other days he learns about cleaning rooms. He practices making beds, washing towels, and keeping everything nice and tidy.

At lunchtime, Anan eats with the other students. In the afternoon, he has practice time. Sometimes he works in a small training hotel. He serves drinks, carries bags, or helps in the restaurant. The teachers watch and help him do it better.

Later in the day, he has lessons about life and good manners. He learns how to work in a team and how to be kind to others.

In the evening, he studies English again or plays football with friends. After dinner, he goes back to his room, reads a little, and then sleeps. He feels happy because every day he learns something new for his future.
