Umm Arasas Mixed Comprehensive Secondary School is committed to addressing the literacy gap in our community through a service learning project aimed at enhancing students' English literacy skills. Our project focuses on improving reading, pronunciation, and spelling abilities while fostering self-confidence and responsibility among students.

Additionally, our partnership with colleagues from other communities expands our impact and fosters a culture of collaboration and shared learning.

Teaching Quality:

Our project emphasizes quality education by promoting lifelong learning and gender equality. Through innovative teaching practices tailored to Arabic-speaking students, we aim to create an inclusive learning environment where every student feels valued and empowered to succeed. Our focus on pronunciation and speaking skills enhances students' ability to communicate effectively in English, preparing them for future academic and professional endeavors.

This exposure inspires us to continually innovate and improve our teaching methods, ensuring that our students receive the highest quality education possible.

Positive Impact on Student Learning:

Our service learning project positively impacts student learning by providing them with the tools and support they need to succeed academically and personally. By fostering a culture of collaboration, responsibility, and self-confidence, we empower our students to become lifelong learners and active contributors to their community.
