News from the First Term

Apr 25th, 2009 by duncan | 0

The 2009 TeachOut committee is rather pleased with our first term of operations. TeachOut started with a bang this year, running most sessions from the first week.. Despite scrupulous planning, the first term was not without its problems. The greatest of these was the decided lack of cash…we are, however, pleased to inform you that this problem has been partly solved – we are still looking for money to finance the fourth term of operations.

During the first term TeachOut had 58 tutoring sessions and only 4 sessions were cancelled.  We currently have 96 active volunteers that are tutoring approximately 300 pupils within the three schools we operate – the help is greatly appreciated. Members of the TeachOut Committee are carrying out their jobs excellently and are excited and motivated to continue our successes into the second term.
