LEWISTON — A former Lewiston Adult Education student has been named Student of the Month by Northeast Technical Institute, a career school in Lewiston.

Michel Simba, who took the adult basic education class and volunteered at the Adult Learning Center in 2017, received the honor recently.

“Michel is one of our top manufacturing students,” a release on the NTI website said. “He is always on time and always respectful of his fellow classmates. When we have visited manufacturing companies, he is the first to ask questions and seek additional information.”

Simba is fluent in English, French and Portuguese. He taught a conversational English class and a computer class at Lewiston Adult Education.

“Michel is a dedicated and avid learner,” Amy Hatch, College Transitions and ABE instructor for Lewiston Adult Education, said. “He was an inspiration to many other students in my ABE classes.”

Simba has completed his training at NTI and has been hired by Modula Inc. of Lewiston.
