Assanah Binsulong,Teacher, Narathiwat Province, Thailand: “Being an MTB-MLE educator requires undergoing rigorous training to learn this approach, which is still very new in Thailand. It is worth it when I see the children are happier and doing better in class. A mother of one of my students came up to me recently and asked why this approach wasn’t used for all classes because her child who had been in an MTB-MLE program since kindergarten was doing better in school than an elder sibling who had not.
