Syrian Couple: Abou Hamrah and Class

syrian couple: They didn't speak English, couldn't talk to their sponsor and spent much of their time alone, according to Metro News. So first, Abou Hamrah enrolled the couple in an English class for seniors. The Syrian couple was in their early 70s, and had just arrived in Edmonton. Then he sorted out a ride to the downtown centre where they were held. Once they are in the class, they are so happy to be in the class, they are very interested to know the language, Abou Hamrah said. For good measure, he also signed them up for a choir so they'd meet more people. (www.immigrantscanada.com). As reported in the news.
