Meet Moses Nkoroi from Kenya

What has been your most memorable cultural experience so far?

The most memorable cultural experience so far is winning the teacher of the month  award  in my second month teaching in the US, having started teaching in October 2023.

What has been your favorite part about living in the US?

My favorite part about living in the US is  meeting a community that has been really supportive, and interested in our personal and professional growth as J-1 teachers.

What has been the most challenging?

The most challenging is the first month due to issues of transportation, housing, meeting and adjusting to a new culture.

What has been your student's favorite cultural exchange activity so far?

My  students favorite cultural exchange activity; is learning Swahili greetings like

                   Swahili                  English

Greetings : Habari yako?        How are you?

Response:   Mzuri                   I am good.

                 Kwaheri               Bye bye.

                 Tuonane Kesho     See you tomorrow.

Do you have tips for your fellow J-1 teachers?

My tips for J1 Teachers: keep focused and work to your level best. The impact and legacy you leave behind is long lasting and can never be erased; it will remain in the memories of the learners that you are dealing with today. Be the best teacher you can be and let every opportunity you come across be  a ground to prove your agility to the world that you are more than they can imagine. Be optimistic and let your confidence drive you through areas you may feel less competent.
