Thank you for supporting Eureka SuperKidz and collaborating to provide six months of salary to a teacher. An AID India Education Initiativie, Eureka SuperKidz operates in the Indian state of Tamil Nadu, where more than 50% of children in grades 3 to 5 are unable to read, write, and do basic math. Eureka offers after-school support classes that provide high quality education to children who have fallen behind and develop fun activities to keep the children involved.
As one enters the Eureka center and searches for the ET1 tutor (who teaches classes one to three), you would be taken by surprise to find a uniform clad 11th standard school student. Jayasurya, a 15 year old government-school student, is a proud ET1 tutor at the Thirupulivanam Eureka SuperKidz location.The help, support and wishes from you all gives Jayasurya the opportunity to help talented students explore beyond the formal school education.
When asked what brings her here, Jayasurya says it’s her passion to teach children. She adds that she enjoys teaching the most through Eureka Center. The enthusiastic teacher takes on challenges — here, she is seen spending extra time with her group student Lokesh to ensure he starts writing English. You can’t help but watch with a huge smile as Lokesh writes all the English letters in order with his best handwriting.
Thank you all for supporting Eureka SuperKidz and Jayasurya.
