Yesterday morning, we talked to the girls in our tutoring program and felt their enthusiasm, engagement and excitement for the program. Despite our technical difficulties to maintain consistent contact throughout, their testimonies more than made up for the difficulties we faced. Novice, one of the program participants, said that her grades in French increased from 2\/20 last year to 9\/20 today, a 35% increase. Maurelle, another participant, also stated that she ended the previous school year with 9\/20 in English. A few days ago, she scored 20\/20 on her first English test. That is a 55% increase from roughly a month of tutoring. These girls emanated such spirit and momentum that compelled us to look at the future of Aumazo through their eyes.<\/p>\n<p><center><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/pr-buzz-2.jpg\" alt=\"Aumazo Tutoring Program\" \/><\/center><\/p>\n<h3>Creating a Buzz<\/h3>\n<p>You have played a very important role in this exciting moment in Aumazo&rsquo;s life cycle.
