May 2013 - English Live Plus

A one year course of English Live Plus at the National Charity School was completed. This course benefitted 215 students and helped to improve their conversation, communication, and team working skills in a fun and interactive environment.  The course was sponsored by HSBC and many of the banks staff volunteered throughout the year.
 

I must start by saying that I was very hesitant to participate and be a volunteer as I have never been involved in something like this. But doing so has totally changed my thinking. It opened my eyes to see that it was fun being surrounded by children who are so enthusiastic in wanting to learn so much more of not just a language but also interacting with us, all from totally different cultures and background. Yes, I am so glad that I did volunteer, even if I have not made a great impact on their lives, they definitely left me walking out that night with a smile on my face and sweet memories that I will carry with me for a long time. Thank you Action Care for giving me this opportunity.
