Community members and students alike expressed a desire to improve their English language skills in a low-pressure environment. So, Fulbright ETA Caroline Kim decided to meet them where many Manadonese naturally congregate: coffee shops.

Caroline particularly enjoyed meeting one of her classes, X Bahasa, over coffee. From teaching American slang to being taught bahasa Manado slang, Caroline continues to be impressed by her students’ genuine, generous curiosities.

Caroline Kim is currently teaching at MAN 1 Model Manado, North Sulawesi
