The ability to read is a fundamental right, yet many young Filipino children struggle to grasp this essential skill. At Binhi English Literacy Foundation, Inc. (BINHI), we're working to change that, one child at a time. As a Volunteer Tester, your support will provide us with crucial insights into our BINHI Scholars' development, ensuring we're effectively boosting their English language skills and fostering their academic growth.
About the Project
Founded in 2008, BINHI aims to improve English reading skills among identified non- and frustrated readers, aged 4-8, in public elementary schools and community centers through its 100-day free reading program.
The program runs for 20 weeks. Pupils are tested three times during the program period: pre-test, mid-test, and post-test. We are about to start a new school year for our program, and thus, we are preparing for the pre-test. Tester volunteers will help conduct one-on-one tests with Kindergarten to Grade 2 students, based on their chosen schedule from June 19 to 29 at their chosen partner site/s. Each test is expected to last around 10-15 minutes.
To ensure volunteers are well-prepared, a virtual self-paced training module will be shared followed by a Regrouping Orientation via Google Meet.
Volunteer Duties
- Review the volunteer testers' module released via Canva Sites
- Attend a virtual orientation prior to the testing schedule
- Allot at least 3 hours of their time based on their chosen schedule/s
- Travel to any of the following areas: Calamba City, Manila City, Muntinlupa City, Parañaque City, Pasay City, Pasig City, and Quezon City
