[edit] Description of Service
I taught general science, biology, math, and English at the secondary school in Bahar Dar. It was a wonderful experience (in spite of bouts of amoebic dysentery and malaria). I believe I learned as much as my students, especially about the Ethiopian culture. I still keep in touch with one of my students who has since immigrated to the U.S. He earned a masters degree from Yale University, and has become a successful businessman and author. Even after 40 years, I still remember in vivid detail my time in Ethiopia.
