For the love of her students


Wheelchair bound teacher Maisura Abd Jalil, 31, who suffers from kidney disease, guiding one of her pupils how to type on a Braille machine at SKPK Princess Elizabeth on May 15, 2014.

JOHOR BARU: Despite the burden of having to go for dialysis three times a week, teacher Maisura Abd Jalil remains passionate about her job to teach underprivileged kids at a school for the blind here.

In fact, the children helped her to forget her own worries because they needed more attention and care than her, said the 31-year-old wheelchair bound teacher.
