Teacher support

Teachers are at the center of Meskot's work. Local teachers prepare and present the lessons, and Meskot trains teachers to use them in class.

Teachers who make the lessons

Experienced local teachers turn the approved curriculum into video lessons.

The lessons are created with educators who understand the curriculum, the language and the learning needs of Tigray's children. They adapt approved curriculum content into lessons in Tigrinya, then prepare and present them on video.

The teacher in a learning corner

The teacher guides the children and keeps the records.

Guides children in small groups, by grade.
Helps each child choose the lessons they need.
