Kicking Off Summer 2024: Week 1 of Our Unique Education Program

Jul 17, 2024
Welcome to the first week of our Impactful Education 2024 Summer Program! We are thrilled to welcome 50 students to our educational hub at Lycee Moderne d’Anyama. We're off to an exciting start with our unique learning experience, a program that's truly one-of-a-kind in the Anyama community. As the week begins, our students are diving into two essential areas: Beginner Computer Skills and Effective Communication in both French and English.

In today's world, computer literacy is a must, and it's crucial to provide digital literacy resources to young people from rural communities. This ensures they have access to the same educational opportunities as their peers. That's why we've started with the basics, making sure every student can turn on a computer, type up a document, and navigate the internet safely. Our hands-on approach allows students to practice as they learn, preparing them for success in their academic and future professional lives.

Effective communication is just as vital as tech skills. Our students are learning to communicate effectively in both French and English. We're going beyond grammar and vocabulary; we're also teaching them to listen, understand, and express their thoughts clearly. These skills are invaluable and will serve them well, no matter where their future takes them.

For the first time, the students in Anyama are participating in a summer program that not only provides literacy and technology learning but also cares for their well-being. Providing lunch during the program is important because it ensures that students can focus on learning without the distraction of hunger.

None of this would be possible without the incredible support from various organizations that have provided funding. Their contributions have been crucial in creating a program that stands out in our community.

We are just getting started, and we can't wait to see how our students grow from these experiences. Stay tuned for more updates as we continue to provide a unique and impactful educational journey for our students this summer!
