YWAM MS launches Literacy Support Program

This short-term intervention program is aimed at school-based children who have low literacy skills and are typically identified at the beginning of grade 3. The program comprises intensive one-to-one lessons for 20-30 minutes a day, three days a week, with a trained YWAM MS Literacy Tutor.

Last month, YWAM MS trained 16 tutors, including nine members from Vabukori and Taikone and seven full-time YWAM volunteers. The tutors will begin their work at Sevese Morea Primary School this February.
