Iltaqui: Spotlight on Diana

Child spotlight from Claryssa, an intern at Iltaqui:
This is Diana Maribel Marcillo. She was born on November 28, 2000 and is 10 years old. She is in seventh grade. Her parents are Alberto Marcillo Panama and Maria Angelina Oyagata Panama. Diana has been a very diligent student and so far has not missed a day of classes. She has two younger sisters who come with her, Selena who is 8 years old and Ă‘usta who is 5 years old. Diana catches on quickly and always makes sure she correctly pronounces every word in English. She has learned how to say what her favorite fruit is (kiwi) and also what her favorite sport is (soccer). Diana is also very helpful in the classroom. She makes sure everyone is quiet and ready to learn. When her mom has to work Diana has to bring her youngest brother to class. He is only a little more than a year old so sometimes she has to take him outside and misses part of the lesson. Despite this challenge, Diana continues to master everything we learn in class. She will come to me for extra help and will also review with her friends and sisters what they have learned that day. Overall she is an excellent student with tons of potential!
