Some heroes are hidden. 

They make others glow. 

They are the candle to make others' life glow.

They are real heroes.

In Prey Veng, Cambodia, Seng, a preschool teacher, not only teaches her pupil with dedication but also transports them to school and back. Seng lives about a few kilometers away from the school just like her students, but those few kilometers are a lot for these small children. When Seng realised that the distance is keeping her students from attending regular school, as not all parents could drop the children off regularly, she took it upon herself. She then attached a borrowed cart to her motorbike and started picking up and dropping off her students. Today, she visits her students’ homes in the morning every day, picks them up one by one, and brings them to school. When school gets over, she takes them back to their respective homes as well.

Najeeba from Balochistan, Pakistan decided to educate her family's children. She volunteered for 'Mera Ghar, Mera School' (My Home, My School), the initiative supported by UNICEF and Balochistan’s Secondary Education Department for students, to continue learning even during the COVID-19 pandemic. She teaches English, Maths, and Science in her home which she's turned into a classroom for fellow students. 

Dedicated teachers are the hero of the students.
