One instructor said about the commissioning, “I am grateful for the opportunity to engage in adult literacy education by immersing myself in the lives of illiterate people, understanding and empathizing with them,” and added, “I look forward to my future activities as an adult literacy instructor.”
Meanwhile, starting from March, the county will operate the Visiting Aragaya Literacy Class twice a week for 4 hours each session at 25 village halls and senior centers within the jurisdiction.
