4 MTB-MLE school teachers from the Tipling and Jharlang villages volunteered to also teach a bilingual Family Literacy class for parents with low literacy skills who are interested in learning to read and write. The teachers received training in October 2019 and took the first volume of the Western Tamang Family Literacy Primer back to their villages. Subsequently, in November 2019, three Family Literacy groups consisting of mostly women, have started to meet regularly and with much enthusiasm 2-3 times a week.
