English tutor for underprivileged primary school children
The SoCO English tutoring programme, funded by KPMG, aims to promote high standards of literacy and oral skills by learning new vocabularies, encouraging English speaking, and also develop their interest in English through widespread reading. Tutors will provide weekly sessions for 13 weeks, based on their availability for students to practice and improve their English skills with a tutor through various ways such as casual chatting, homework guidance, English tutoring, revision of test papers etc. 80% participation (10-11 sessions) is required for both tutors and students. Each session lasts for 40 minutes to 1 hour and each session.
Volunteers are required to participate in 2x short training courses (4 hours total) for the programme through zoom. The online training course splits into two sessions. The first session will be conducted by a SoCO staff which includes the introduction of the programme, students' learning needs, and administration procedures. The second session will be conducted by an experienced tutor from an English learning agency who teaches about communication and teaching skills on how to improve students' learning motivation and interests. Online Training happens on Feb 10 and 17, 7:30-9:30 pm
As SoCO aims to provide help to underprivileged children and families, this project can provide more opportunities for underprivileged children to gain access to extra English tuition, improve their English literacy and oral skills through mentorship.
