We provide skill-based teaching to help children bridge the gap, getting them to grade level by solidifying Foundational Literacy and Numeracy (FLN) skills.
Why We Do It
Early DisadvantagesStudents from disadvantaged family backgrounds often fall behind early in their education journey. The methods of teaching do not address their learning needs and they continue to perform poorly. They often struggle to acquire even basic literacy and numeracy skills during primary school.
The Limitation of Rote LearningIn rote learning, there is no connection between new and old information. Hence it does not allow for a deeper understanding of the subject, or encourage the use of social skills. Our initial assessments have shown the children to be at least 2-4 years below their grade level.
After-school Teaching Programs
We provide skill-based education through after-school teaching in Kannada, Math and English. The children are assessed and assigned to their appropriate level, depending on the skills they need to develop, be it basic literacy, fluent reading or mathematical understanding.
We deliver this with the help of teachers from the local community, provide them skills training, and use simple methods for teaching that makes learning joyful and engaging.
