World Wise Schools
World Wise Schools has matched up Peace Corps Volunteer Cynthia Moody with American TESOL Institute for a two-year exchange of ideas, stories, pictures, and artifacts that help ATI students in the classroom learn about the people, geography, environment, and the culture of the world. Currently, Cynthia Moody is finishing up Peace Corp training in Namaasha, Mozambique. In 2 weeks, she will leave for her permanent site: Massingir, Mozambique in Gaza province on the South African border - just 10km from Limpopo National Park, which is a big game reserve shared with South Africa. Cynthia will be working with a small, community based organization that is dedicated to HIV-AIDS education and prevention. Cynthia Moody's background is in organizational behavior.

World Wise Schools Update - December
Greetings from Mozambique! It is a lovely, sunny, hot friday afternoon here in Namaasha. I have just finished the final tests for training, and I was told that I have passed! Tomorrow all the volunteers and our host families are having a pot luck to celebrate. I go to the Ambassador's house in the capital city, Maputo, on Tuesday for the swearing-in ceremony, and leave for Gaza on Wednesday. I have just learned that my town has no internet access. So, I won't get to travel to check email again until sometime in January. If you don't hear from me until then, not to worry. I will get you all some updates by Febuary.
