Background

Interactive Storytelling is the core program of Books & Beyond for the P.4 local primary school students. Children learn the English language together with social-emotional skills to excel in school and in life.

What we have

Well-structured lesson plans & experienced Team Leader to lead the session

Why this is important

The Interactive Storytelling Program is the cornerstone of our initiative, providing a strong foundation for nurturing children’s passion for learning English. Once we have sparked their interest in the language, we will continue our work to further develop their reading habits and English proficiency, supporting them through junior secondary school and beyond.
