We started this New Year with incredible enthusiasm and lots of positive energy. Students were eagerly waiting to meet their tutors and share their vacation stories.
January is a month of celebrations in Tamilnadu, India. Students celebrate Pongal, a festival to demonstrate respect for nature, farmers and cattle. On the school campus, the staff had organized fun activities and ceremonies designed to nurture cultural values in our students.
One of our volunteers visited the school during January. Students and staff were excited to spend a day with her. During her visit, she was able to address and resolve a few issues we had with the computer classes.
This quarter, our tutors are introducing next level grammar lessons. Students show great enthusiasm in taking on new chapters with the zeal to learn more. Students aced the test conducted in January covering the previous level grammar lessons. This success has boosted our tutors’ confidence.
As we approach March, we are preparing for concluding this academic year with a final assessment test. We realize that frequently conducting tests helps us gauge our students’ progress, allowing us to revise our teaching strategies. Good learning outcomes and motivated students and tutors indicate that we are heading in the right direction.
