Cuban Teachers in Nicaragua Wish Fidel Castro a Fast Recovery
Cuban teachers and other educational workers currently offering their services in Nicaragua sent Fidel Castro a message wishing him well and a fast recovery from recent surgery.
The Cuban collaborators said they have been following news about President Castro’s rehabilitation and that they were pleased to learn of the successful treatment he has undergone.
Half a dozen of Cuban teachers have been working in Nicaragua for a year now. They have helped foster the national literacy program launched by the Sandinista Front, the Prensa Latina news agency reported.
Ned Quevedo, a teacher from eastern Cuban province of Camaguey, said that the teaching program has been successful in that Central American nation, while the Nicaraguan people have welcomed the Cuban personnel with open arms.

The literacy campaign, based on the Cuban methodology known as “Yo Si Puedo,” has helped some 20,000 people how to read and write in several municipalities of Nicaragua.
