Goals And Objectives
Project's Main Activities - Supportive Education Activities
Supportive education activities aim to improve the educational achievement of low achievement achievers and students learning disabilities by refining their educational skills in basic school subjects: Arabic, Mathematics, and English. The academic level of students is determined by holding preliminary tests for each school grade. Consequently, students are distributed through different study groups, according to their school level, through which each group receives three weekly meetings for each of these subjects in line their school schedule “Morning shift – Evening shift”, i.e. before or after school. In addition to teaching the subject material, teachers also provide students with worksheets and test samples to help them practice and assess their understanding and progress. Additionally, students receive support and psychological sessions and seminars on time management and self- improvement. Students always recommend the continuity of support education services as they have positive effects on their academic achievements and deep comprehension of the study materials.

Success Stories: Student And Parents Feedback
I consider myself lucky to have the opportunity to up level my academic achievement at school, especially in English and maths. I now feel more confident when I do maths or English. During the program, I got a high mark in maths and I was so excited that I immediately shared it with my teacher. My teacher was so kind and rewarded me for it. I would be delighted if the program continued next year.
Honestly, I faced many challenges with English before I joined the remedial education program at Friends Without Borders Centre. I have always felt that it was impossible for me to understand English or get high marks at it. I passed my English exams mostly by chance. Thanks to the amazing method the teacher uses to teach English, I am now building simple sentences and am able to do textbook exercises much more easily than before. Essentially, I believe if this program continues I will be fluent in English one day.
Actually, my son and daughter are happy at the center, and have benefited greatly from the remedial education program. Now they have started to make positive progress at their school. The program has been exceptionally supportive during the difficult economic situation we are experiencing. I would recommend it to my relatives and neighbors.
First of all, I thank you for the remedial education program you provide our children with. I can clearly see its results in my children’s grades at school. I have noticed that my son likes going to school more now. With this program, my son has developed into a confident and capable child. I would always encourage him to join such programs.
