I know of one kitchen helper who wanted to master English language to be able to help his kids in studying. He scribbled English words on the kitchen walls, I even saw some of his writings on tissues, in fact he brought tears to my eyes when I learnt how determined he was to want to be in a better position. He always had a book in his hands.

He was that eager to learn, now he works for Fanar....:)
