16．As a volunteer teacher，I traveled a long way to a small village school in Longzhou，Guangxi．On my way there，I thought about the village，the school，and the children there．However，I felt sad when I arrived there．It wasn't what I expected．It didn't look like a school at all!The school had only three rooms，one for Grades 1，2and 3，and another one for Grades 4，5and 6．There was a third one for me．
The children welcomed me warmly on my first day．They asked me a lot of questions，and I told them stories about myself and my life in Shanghai．The next day，I gave them a test to find out their level．Though the test was very easy，over half of the students failed it，yet they all wanted to learn new things．I knew they needed me．
I was busy preparing lessons，reading test papers every night．I enjoyed teaching these lovely and hardworking children，and I could see that they were making progress with my help．I have also learned a lot from them．I understand their lives better，and we are now good friends．
I have worked in Longzhou for a year now．I'm very happy，and the experience has been very useful for me．I love the small village school and the children．In fact，I would like to continue working here．
