Slow Learner

Espoir Academy is NOT a remedial school; however we have made special provision for the needs of Slow learners. At Espoir Academy we celebrate the fact that our learners are individuals and that no two individuals are the same. Each learner has his/her own Learning styles: visual, aural, tactile.

Different learners have different learning styles.

• Some learners are “visual” – they need to see pictures, illustrations, charts
• Other learners are “aural” – they like to listen, hear, and discuss.
• Some learners are “tactile” or “kinaesthetic” learners like to touch, they enjoy hands–on experiences, they like to do things, and enjoy physical activities.
• Learners also have varying degrees of attention span

Therefore, we subscribe to the idea of stimulating all senses when teaching and learning and continuous assessment of learners’ achievements and challenges. Our teaching staff is 100 percent hands on and is observant of each individual learners’ performance at all times.

Reading Programmes

The school have a book Library and we encourage our learners to Read-A-Book-A-Week. With the unique BOOK ADVENTURE project our learners experience great adventure through books and they systematically work towards the annual READ-A-THON and SPELL-A-THON where they can share their love and achievement of the written word.

Computer Labs

The school has a full media room, where learners learn and experience computers. Computer Application Training lessons are given to all learners from Grade RR to 12.

And We are rolling out E-learning programmes.
