TeachSaLone

To assist the staff, help our children reach their maximum potential and become productive citizens, we launched our teacher-training program TeachSaLone.

Vision

The vision of TeachSaLone is to give our staff the foundational knowledge and skills they need to become highly effective educators.

Mission

To provide our staff with vital, vibrant, vigorous in-service trainings throughout the school year as well as create an extensive bank of online resources.

The first teacher-training workshop was hosted in June 2011 for two weeks. The focus was on best practices for teaching English Language, Reading, Writing, Math, and Science.

The second teacher-training workshop was hosted in June 2013 for a week. Mrs. Judy Dorsey-Davis, a Master teacher from Atlanta, Georgia, focused on literacy. Our teachers had a great time learning how to write and create children books appropriate for our culture and environment.

Subsequent training workshops have been conducted by local educators in Sierra Leone.
