Frustrations in Liberia Test a US Peace Corps Volunteer
David Krotz, 22, a Cedar Rapids native and Peace Corps volunteer, spent two years in Greenville Liberia teaching English, French and literature. He faced severe classroom challenges, yet noted a student’s late growth, including a writer who produced stories and a novel. CARE provided a library boost, and Krotz helped run a school paper and news team. He also contributed to building a classroom kitchen and warehouse. He plans to resume studies after returning to Iowa.
