I took part in a training program and became a literacy volunteer (扫盲志愿者)last summer. When I began to discover what other people's lives were like because they could not read, I realized thetrue importance of reading.

My first student Marie was a 44-year-old single mother of three. In the first lesson, I found that she walked two miles to the nearest supermarket twice a week because she didn't know which busto take. When I told her I would get her a bus schedule(时间表), she told me it would not help because she couldn't read it. She said she also had difficulty when she got to the supermarket because she couldn'talways remember what she needed. Since she did not know words, she could not write out a shopping list.

As we worked together, learning how to read built Marie's self-confidence(自信),which encouraged her to continue(继续) with her studies. She began to make rapid progress and was even able to take the bus to the supermarket. After this successful trip,

she reported how self-confident she felt. At the end of the program, she began helping her

youngest son, Tony, a shy first grader, with his reading. She sat with him before he went to sleep and together they would read bedtime stories. When his eyes became wide with excitement as she read, pride(自豪) was written all over her face, and she began to see how her own hard work in that helping Marie to build her self-confidence was more rewarding(值得的) than anything I had ever done before.

As a literacy volunteer, I learned a great deal about teaching and helping others. In fact, I may havelearned more from the experience than Marie did.
