-
A teacher from Tigray
An experienced local teacher, who knows the curriculum, the language and the children, prepares and presents the lesson.
-
In the mother tongue
The lesson is recorded in Tigrinya, the children's mother tongue, and follows the school curriculum from grade 1 to grade 8.
-
With or without internet
Children watch it online, or without internet from USB drives and in Offline Learning Corners hosted by schools and communities.
The children the lessons are for
Children who learn in large classes, with few materials in their own language.
At Adikentibay Complete Primary School in Shire, where Meskot is setting up its first Offline Learning Corner, many classes are taught in crowded temporary classrooms. A video lesson gives each child a way to see a topic explained again, in Tigrinya, at their own pace.
