The Department of School Education has launched an initiative called ‘Mentor a Student’ to help students score well in the Test of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL) examination.
Principal Secretary, School Education, Praveen Prakash has urged teachers, parents and officials of the department to take up the responsibility to make the State-level initiative a success. Students of Classes VI to IX would be mentored by their teachers who would help them hone their listening and speaking skills in the English language.
Setting an example, Mr. Praveen Prakash announced that he would shoulder the responsibility of mentoring Santosh, a Class VI student, and urged others to follow suit. “It is important to mentor students in this area to infuse confidence in them,” he said.
