Background

The SoCO English tutoring programme aims to facilitate preschool children's language acquisition and develop their interests in learning English. Through story-telling and interactive games, the course builds up children's foundational knowledge like alphabetical understanding, letter-sound recognition and vocabulary acquisition. The course will be held on every Saturday Morning with 12 lessons in total. There are 3 classes of 3 different levels (K1-K3). Volunteers are expected to teach the classes once a week. The classes will be held between October 2022 to January 2023.

What we have

Volunteers are required to design their own teaching plans and SoCO is able to provide teaching materials for the lessons. If volunteers have encounter any difficulties in teaching the lessons, they can seek advice from our staff as well.

Why this is important
