Content-based Instruction as an important methos in teaching ESP students
Expiration: May 19, 2020As I attended E-Teacher course CBI I would like to share my experience with ESP teachers because this course would be very effective in terms of developing teachers' skills in designing special lesson plans focused on integrating two objectives:
1. Language objective
2. Content objectives.
I am planning to conduct 2-day teacher training and suppose to invite about 35 teachers of English.
In our national context still most teachers are not aware of integrating two types of objectives and also I think it would be useful to share how to collaborate with content teachers as well.

Modern Digital School
Expiration: May 7, 2021Education in Africa has a very poor structure,especially in terms of the methodology and pedagogy used in fundamental education. therefore, there is a huge necessity for a more modern school where the children can have the same high education standards and structure as in the developed world. Because of the time i spent abroad , and my personal experience of the western system of education . I got the idea that why wouldn't I be the person who can bring this to this part of the continent so that it can benefit from it as i have benefited.
The Laikipia Promise - Girls Education
Expiration: April 23, 2020I have been serving as a board member of a public school in Laikipia County in Kenya for the last one year. During this time of service, I have organized several motivation talks and mentor ship programs for the schools and the the desire that the pupils have towards education is motivating. However, most of them come from very humble backgrounds and cannot afford the basic needs to keep them comfortable in school.
Some of the most lacking items includes; sanitary towels for girls, books for both boys and girls, lack of feeding program fee which in most cases is less than $3, lack of class materials such as board and chalks among others.
This has led to several cases of avoidable school drop outs which are very heartbreaking. I started a personal initiative to be helping such cases financially but this has become very overwhelming and I just realized I can't do it all alone due to lack of funds.
To ensure that there is continuity and that dreams are not shattered, I have decided to take this a notch higher by expanding the initiative so that I can also have a more diverse activities rather than case in point and random assistant. I have since then adopted "The Laikipia Promise" as my brand towards realizing this and I am in the process of registering it with the Societies and Community based organizations in Kenya.
I therefore require funds to run this and help young leaders and learners achieve their dream and in a environment where they never lack basic needs.
Looking forward for support!!
Thanks a lot
