Impact

Case Study

Imagine learning a new language that has an unfamiliar script, unfamiliar grammar constructs, and no environment or opportunity to practice your learning outside of the classroom. Now, imagine time running out and options getting limited with each passing day. This is what children in government schools face.

Our programs build confidence in children through carefully designed methodology that enhances their reading, writing, comprehension, and speaking skills as they learn each new concept. While the children get acclimatised and move on to excel at each skill level, the government school teachers also build up their capacity in English as they teach. This stress-free, encouraging environment with ample challenges thrown along the course of the programs helps all types of learners – students and teachers alike. These children are definitely positioned at a better chance at life.
