Hasenschule story (Nihongo ha koko (In Japanese))

Hasenschule story is a collection of my hobby project experience: teaching children in action. Hasenschule is a special school in Berlin in Germany. They teach children who are behind in their school. Some parents send their children to support them, sometimes public school teacher recommends to do so. They also teach adults who cannot read. The school sometimes accepts volunteer teachers like me. I found a lot of fun to teach children also I learn a lot from children. I hope you can see how much fun I have.
