Emma Horsfall

Emma Horsfall brought fun and games to AP as she taught our beginner English classes to Ream (pictured left), Channy, Lina and newest student Sreynak.  There was always a lot of laughter coming from the front room as the children enjoyed learning new English words, phrases, drawing colorful pictures, watching English DVDs and learning new English songs. 
Emma was in Phnom Penh for six months and volunteered at AP while also working at another NGO.  She has headed home to the UK to complete her teaching qualifications.  Thankyou Emma for bringing your love, your hugs, and positive energy to everyone at AP!  We wish you all the best for your new adventures ahead.
