Opportunity Details
Help Ethnic Minority Primary Students with Schoolwork in Tin Hau (ENG)
Description: In Hong Kong, roughly 22.6% of children live under the poverty line. For most of them, after-school activities and tutoring that develop abilities and build self-confidence and social skills, are an inaccessible luxury.
The students from Li Sing Tai Hang School who are ethnic minorities, new arrivals, or from low-income families have been especially disadvantaged, suffering from the lack of extra Chinese/English language and Mathematics support they usually depend on. Volunteers will build up a positive model for the students through casual interaction.
We are calling for English-speaking volunteers who can commit to 7 sessions to deliver small-group tutoring support for primary students on Thursday afternoons in Feb and Mar.
Volunteer roles:
All volunteers who attend this activity must be registered with HandsOn Hong Kong. If you wish to have a friend or family member join you in this activity, they must first register with HandsOn and sign up for the activity.
