This program will consist in direct mentoring and coaching of the pupils through innovative and playful training on specific themes (such as personal development, English language initiation, protection of the environment and development of learning and logical capacity. We will be providing also material aids (such as school supplies, clothes, books, board games, manual books, computer equipment, etc.) to disadvantaged children who are enrolled in public primary schools.
The actual Malagasy educational system is mostly focused on teaching and not learning, handicapping the pupils innate skills and capabilities in just memorizing lessons and ideas. There is a challenge for improvement, having the faculty of learning during these early ages and most importantly to be inspired to have a better future and to enjoy learning. Moreover, civic education, English and environment awareness are not part of the actual education curriculum within the public primary school.
On the first hand, a mentoring program called "Jereo Izy" that aims in inspiring pupils to work harder in order to become who they really want to be in the future. Through different fun and interesting activities, we will strive to unlock their personal and potential capabilities. These courses will be composed of modern, interesting and practical educational activities outside their daily courses. These mentoring activities will be performed by committed citizens who will volunteer themselves.
From a pupil's perspective, this project will provide stimulating opportunity to help them to be motivated to study and have a plan for the future. For example, this will be their first exposition to the English language, to teach them how they can respect and care about their environment, an opportunity to develop their dexterity and will open their eyes into a wide range of life experiences.
