Emmanuel Odido appears here in a class photo with some
children at the Otona School, Jos, Nigeria.

He reports that he is doing well, still trying to adjust with being in class with children that are so much younger than he him.

He says that it’s hard to focus on the lessons because the other children are a lot younger and cause distractions for him.  But he reports that his teacher, Moses, is a GREAT teacher and that she is also hearing impaired and wears hearing aids.

As you can see, Emmanuel continues to wear his new
cochlear implant and if you’ll notice the ear phones hanging from his neck, it shows that he’s also using it to enjoy the sounds of music through the implant!
