About Us
Guru Temanku
After joining the ELTA (English Language Training Assistance) program, Mr. Ady realized how important quality education is for children in our region, including English and computer skills. Many scholarships, from both the government and abroad, require English proficiency and academic achievement. Yet from his own course center, he saw that many schools and parents were not aware of these opportunities.
In his classroom, Mr. Ady shared an idea to form an organization that goes directly into villages: helping teachers, teaching English, and organizing competitions. Two of his students, Najla Nurhaya and Irma Abdullah, helped bring this idea to life — and Guru Temanku was born.
To date, Guru Temanku has reached 6 villages in South Halmahera, driven by more than a dozen volunteers, and has touched dozens of teachers and hundreds of students — from early childhood to senior high school — through the trainings and competitions we hold regularly.
