Phonics training for teachers – Mumbai

This post has already been read 774 times!

Suhrid Foundation has been working with schools for almost 2 years now. In this area, we have worked towards supporting teachers with different teaching aids – which includes support of Computer, Educational CDs, Books in the library etc. In an effort to go next level in making teaching more efficient, interesting and modern techniques, Suhrid Foundation roped in another Samaritan and expert in the education field of Phonics – for English reading and speaking.

While our supported schools are Marathi medium schools, they do have English as a part of their curriculum. Using the phonics (a technique which their counterpart students in urban areas are using last few years) would help students speak and read English faster. Schools were closed by 15-Apr, teachers were still in schools finishing administrative work before their vacation. This is generally the best time for training and upgrading their skills.

Team of teachers – eleven of them – traveled to Kandivali, Mumbai – where it was arranged. Teachers travel arrangement was made by Suhrid Foundation. Ms Krishna Sheth, Phonics expert  working in the field for last 6 years – has willingly accepted a request to teach teachers of schools supported by Suhrid Foundation. She has also shared her teaching course material. Team Suhrid has shared photocopies to all the material to all 8 schools currently supported. Team Suhrid is very thankful to Ms Krishna for her support to the cause.
