Home Language Mentoring
French and Japanese Mentoring
The Home language mentoring program is a program dedicated to the improvement in home language studies, spearheaded by senior students for junior students. This will be done with buddy systems whereby seniors will tutor juniors and offer guidance and support for topics that juniors are uncertain with, and this will be of help to both parties, who get to revise on content learned. This program will therefore allow needy students who find the subject difficult to seek help from older, more experienced mentors outside of class, providing quality education in an inclusive community.
CAS Strand: Service
The mentoring program provides a platform for senior students to be of direct service to their juniors in guiding them to excel academically with their own experience, allowing them to make more meaningful contributions to their community, encouraging virtuous values such as compassion, kindness and empathy that will enable them to be of even greater service in their future.
Lasallian Principles: Inclusive Community, Respect for All Persons and Quality Education
The program leverages on the concept of seniors guiding juniors who may be weak at a subject, and this ties in with the Lasallian principle of Inclusive community, whereby no one is marginalized or discriminated against due to their lack of proficiency of their home language, also teaching student and mentor alike the quality of mutual respect in advancing education, with them having to be respectful of each other's learning styles and time slots, thereby providing a more relatable, on the ground guide to the subject, hence offering quality education to the students in need
