While we train our volunteers to use creative elements in their teaching, we’re constantly blown away by their innovation. From using popsicle sticks to teach the alphabet to practical lessons on gardening to teach the parts of a plant, our volunteers make sure it’s never about rote learning. At one of our Learning Centers in Hyderabad, the volunteers created a colourful box full of games that they use to teach the kids new words and grammar rules. This aptly named ’Resource Box’ uses Snakes and Ladders to teach the kids synonyms and antonyms, picture cards for nouns, coloured spinning wheels for numbers and much more. A big shout-out to our teachers for making learning so fun!
Today about 1500 children are being taught by young, passionate change-makers around the country. Not only are they being tutored in English and other subjects, they are also encouraged through creative play, reading programs and daily affirmations. We're amazed by our team of amazing volunteers who go the extra mile.
