Teng Fei: I think I'll do some volunteer work at a nursing home with
my youth group. I've been a volunteer there since last year.
Ella: Oh! What do you do
Teng Fei: I exercise with the elderly to help them stay active.
Sometimes I play Chinese chess with them. I've even taught
some of them how to use a mobile phone.
Ella: That's great. Do their families visit them often
So Teng Fei volunteers at a nursing home and he helps the elderly people who live there.

interesting life stories and experiences to share with us.
