Peter had faced a lot of challenges in providing a high-quality educational curriculum and materials to the students. At the same time, he is lacking manpower, financial issues, and a proper teaching setting. "My dream and priority are to build a school for my students. The kids and teenagers from my community are missing so much in education. We can't fill the gap and we have missed a lot in their education. So, we have to start from the ground to make sure they have a strong foundation to go to their secondary education. English is one of the best subjects to teach my students because I think English is important for them." Currently, Peter had 3 volunteers from UK and Malaysia. He is eagerly looking for volunteers and financial support to move to a better setting or place to teach the students.
