Ep 06: Tanzania Classrooms with Benjamin Kappande

from Classrooms Beyond Borders: A Day in the Life Hosted by Cammie Kannekens

Meet Benjamin Kappande, a teacher from Tanzania, who started teaching in the rural Ngorongoro Crater area - the gateway to African safari! He has since moved to Arusha, a city where he has opened a private primary school and runs an after school club for mentoring youth. Our conversation explores the realities of education in rural Tanzania such as immense overcrowding, lack of resources and the resourcefulness of teachers and students alike. He tells about Friday afternoon school trips where all students carry jerry cans to the river 30 minutes away to fetch water.
