2009
We lowered the course fee for the LTTC Diploma in TESOL
preparatory course under a School and Community Programme in response to the economic downturn that grew from
2008 into a recession in Singapore in the first part of 2009, with job and
income losses. This fee reduction from S$2650 to S$2000 was for applicants
who were retrenched or not retrenched but seeking work at the time.
2010
We initiated free English lessons in Singapore TESOL, aimed
at foreign speakers of English. These are teaching practice sessions with an interesting variety of language topics. Not
being a course, the attendees never quite know what to expect but the
sessions are all the more enjoyable for that! We are pleased to have
welcomed attendees from
Myanmar, Indonesia, China, Russia, Japan, Korea,
India, Argentina and Turkey with foreign domestic workers, homemakers, industry
managers and foreign students coming together in our Friday or Saturday
sessions.
2011
We became a Donor to Child's Dream
www.childsdream.org for school
development in Laos. Child's Dream is a charitable organisation that helps
schools and children in need in the marginalised regions of Myanmar, Laos, Thailand
and Cambodia.
Our LTTC TESOL
trained teachers are contributing in many ways
and in many institutions and countries to the development of lives
