Shalom School

Vision: Encourage and empower women to think, work, and live as if they recognize their value to their families and their societies.

Demographic: Women ages 30-50

Through Aari classes, the women are changing their lifestyle.  They used to feel inadequate as contributing members to their families.  

Now, they are sincerely trying to practice and develop their skills.  The goal is to eventually seek jobs  and help meet their family needs

Practice makes perfect.  Practice also inspires dreams.  They have dreams of starting small businesses and improving their quality of life.

Vision: The elders in the community, who feel unable to participate, will feel that they too can contribute to their community.

Demographic: Elderly and disabled

The elderly in the community often feel left behind due to various circumstances.  Hope Torch is trying to make them feel they are also equally important to the community. 

House visits are conducted once every week or two.  

By spending a little time with them, we see them happy.  They get a small break from some of their problems.  Each week, they now have something to look forward to.  

We hope to take this encouragement and transform it into empowerment.  They still have a role to play in society.

Vision: Students who embrace their efforts in education today, knowing they will create opportunities for themselves tomorrow.

Demographic: Students from Grade 10 to University.

By trying to improve on the skills they have already learned, students feel empowered that they know more than they realize. 

Exam season will be approaching quickly.  Now, they need to focus on exam pattern questions and have no fear of their exams.

It is interesting to see students pick up on communication skills and be exam-ready. 

Vision: Giving hope to the community members that they have the ability to work, to contribute, and thrive in any setting.

Demographic: Individuals and Families

The students already know the basics of English.  Their knowledge is what they have learned in school.  However, the school did not prepare them to converse in English in a work setting.   Now, they need to improve their communication skills.

It is inspiring to see students work hard to improve their communication skills.  They are doing this to be prepared for jobs.

Vision: Kids leave foundation years with confidence in their ability to learn.  

Our hybrid class format implements the Self-Worth Driven Education pedagogy through STEM classes in KG-Grade 2 delivered by the Quest Academy license. 

The online classes provide an engaging, alternative approach to STEM topics that serves to reinforce their foundation as they review it year after year.  

Through the workbooks, students are motivated to complete as much as they can with content that is challenging for their age group.  It is ok to fail as long as they persevere.

Vision: Kids in these years are preparing for high school both in terms of knowledge and curiosity for education.

The Self-Worth Legacy programs help students discover their Self-Worth through a series of programs that are built off of their curriculum but present learning from a different perspective.

Mathletics and Word Frames present STEM topics in a challenging and engaging format that involves gamification, art, creativity, and discussion.  The goal is mastery, not simply knowledge.

Hidden Treasures, Inside Out, and the Self-Worth Journal program enable students to engage with their mentors and peers in meaningful and reflective ways.   They begin to see the value of their contribution to their teams and their communities.
