Personally I am very happy to be part of the volunteering team and help kindergarteners improve their fine motor skills. As I am mostly surrounded by kids and I spend a lot of time with them, that\u2019s why it is very important for me to see their growth and improvement and to help them whenever I have the possibility and drive to do so. I am also very happy to be here and to contribute to the development of the area that I live in.

I want to tell you about an incident that happened to me where I work. I am dealing with a child in kindergarten who is not very good at using his fine motor activities. We were doing some crafts which involved the usage of hands and palms and I saw him struggling a lot. I saw the purest form of learning when the boy who knew that I wanted to learn Romanian and Hungarian said to me “I will teach you because you are a good person to me”.

This experience was very eye-opening for me as I saw that we all \u201cfight\u201d in our own ways, it may happen that I struggle to make connections with the kids because of the existing language barriers between us, but they also struggle sometimes with their hand crafts, and they need as much help as I need too. Volunteering projects also help you get to know yourself and the people as well, that\u2019s why I consider myself very lucky in this regard. Yes, children’s English is not always the best, and the communication between us can be rocky sometimes, but love has a universal language, that all of us can understand.","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
