education support
Education Support is provided through our community center using a holistic approach. We offer a variety of educational sessions in both English and Khmer. Older children have access to a technology-based online English program that includes STEM subjects once a week. Meanwhile, our younger learners participate in formal English classes, tutoring in Khmer and mathematics, as well as Discovery Learning, Creative Arts, and a revision public speaking class. Fridays are dedicated to "Get Active and Healthy," where children learn about physical fitness and nutrition.
Sundays are reserved for music lessons and our mentorship program for at-risk youth, which provides not only a support network but also essential life skills.
Additionally, our financial literacy program, Super Savers, is a vital part of helping children understand budgeting, saving, and how loan systems operate.
A Breakdown of Our Programs
Tiny Tots
Our Tiny Tots program helps young children prepare for a successful start in school. Recognizing that past traumas—where educated individuals were targeted—have led to understandable hesitancy among parents, we created this program as a safe and nurturing first step. It builds trust and confidence in education. We’re proud that many of our little learners, some as young as three, are now enrolled in Khmer schools, beginning a lifelong journey of learning.
English Language Classes
In a tourism-driven town, English proficiency greatly improves job opportunities. We offer classes for both children and adults at three different times daily—morning, afternoon, and evening—to accommodate everyone’s schedule. Evening classes are conducted online for older children, helping them stay tech-savvy while learning a globally valuable language.
Khmer Catch up
This tutoring initiative supports students falling behind in Khmer school. Sessions focus on core subjects—Khmer language, Mathematics, and Science—to ensure children stay on track academically. Our goal is to boost both academic performance and self-confidence in a supportive learning environment.
Discovery Learning
Designed for students who struggle in traditional classroom settings, this innovative program offers an experiential approach to education. By encouraging exploration, problem-solving, and self-directed learning, students learn at their own pace and discover their own strengths in a hands-on, engaging environment.
STEM- Science, Technology, Emotions and Mindfulness
Our unique STEM program combines academic learning with emotional intelligence. While students explore science and technology through experiments and creative projects, they also learn to identify, understand, and manage their emotions. This integrated approach builds both intellectual curiosity and emotional strength.
Creative Arts
This program offers children and youth the opportunity to explore a wide variety of artistic outlets—from painting and sculpture to performance, design, and multimedia. By encouraging creativity and self-expression, participants build confidence and find new ways to communicate and connect.
Music
Music offers a joyful escape and a powerful form of self-expression. From singing to learning instruments like keyboard, drums, recorder and saxophone, this program gives students a chance to develop their talents and enjoy moments of creativity. It also strengthens discipline, confidence, and emotional well-being.
Read out Loud
A phonics-based reading initiative, this program provides children with individual support to strengthen literacy skills. Through one-on-one sessions, students develop reading fluency, comprehension, and a lifelong love for books and storytelling.
Get Active and Healthy
Every Friday, we bring the community together to focus on physical health, hygiene, and nutrition through fun, interactive activities. These sessions promote overall wellbeing, while also strengthening community ties through shared experiences and learning.
