Oprah Winfrey will teach a class dubbed “It’s Life 101″ to high school girls in the South African school she founded four years ago.

She tells PopEater.com, “(It) should be fun since I love to teach. And they’re like sponges.”

Winfrey grew up in poverty and made herself a media mogul and multi-millionaire. I’m not sure South African girls — however bright and ambitious — have the same opportunities.
