WHAT WE DO

We Adopt state run Primary schools in Rural areas

We impart free English language & Computer skills to the children of these schools

• - Sign MOU with the Department of Public Instruction under the School Nurturing Program in Karnataka.
• - Identify & Adopt Government primary schools in rural areas.
• - Conduct a Baseline Assessment of the kids to gauge their English skills.
• - Use the Baseline Assessment (instead of the Grade they are studying in) as the starting level, so that each child learns at her/his own pace.
• - Design and focus on a fun filled curriculum at 4 different levels to teach English/Computers for an hour every day.
• - Provide copies of the syllabus created by the Foundation free of cost to children.
• - Bring other resources like libraries with early learning books, computers and Tablets seen usually in private schools.
• - Identify educated / semi-educated women from the communities around these schools.
• - Train, guide and mentor these women as Coordinators, and give them allowances to teach basic English & Computers at these schools.
• - Conduct weekly in-house training for the Coordinators.
• - Arrange training for them with other organizations.
• - Engage volunteers from the city to take ownership of each school and monitor the work done by the Coordinators.
• - Engage “telephone volunteers” to have daily 5-minute English conversations with the Coordinators.
