Here’s a video of the current project I’m doing in India, for the ASPIRE programme.
Hopefully this will be the first in a series so we can see how things progress as the children learn with phonics and Genki English!
What do you think?
130m people on less than $1 a day, this is how we’re helping
THANK YOU!
This must be sooo fullfilling for you and for the teachers and for the kids.
I’m really happy you’ve shared this video, it’s so inspiring, hope giving and motivating!
Let’s start today!
The smiles on the teachers faces say SO MUCH. Way to go Richard!
Just as Margit says, you’ve inspired us to start today.
Can’t open this video Richard. Could be my location in Asia, not sure.

Ah yes, China blocks access to Youtube videos!
Wonderful stuff! Cheered me up no end to see those smiling faces and happy enthusiastic learners.
Well done all of you on the project!
Absolutely Fantastic!
This is an actual revolution in Education. I hope we contribute to that in our places.
Thanks for sharing

HI:)
Thanks a lot for sharing the Indian experience:) I had some summer teaching experience as a volunteer in Nepal – so I really know what you are talking about when you describe it as chalk and board teaching. I would strongly recommend trying out teaching skills there. Usually with no equipment(f we teach in so called state schools), no photocopier, no pictures, no books – apart from the textbook full of excerpts from Dickens , etc.,no posters, card games, board games or whatever we use in our language classrooms.The computer is present in the kids’ life but only in the Internet cafes.So it was very challenging, a tough test for being a real teacher.On the other hand it was so rewarding ! They need English so much and most of them have the motivation that can do wonders. I hope I will be able to repeat the experience this summer. And I keep my fingers crossed for you and your Indian students. I could see in the video you taught women as well! Thanks a lot – on behalf of them – they need it as much as the children. And an educated mother means educated childre:) All the best in your work.
