Teach For Vellore Aims at providing basic and necessary education free of cost to the children of Vellore. All ISTE members are welcome to join this philanthropic initiative.

‘Teach for Vellore’ is an initiative taken by ISTE (Indian Society for Technical Education) to spread practical, technical know-how to the children in the schools of Vellore. We as students want to help these children by teaching them skills that will be useful for them further down the line. We aim to majorly impart knowledge to the children between the age group of 11-15 years. The basic module

that we would be teaching each set of students will be specifically designed to make it a fun learning process for them. We aim at covering two basic areas, namely science and communication skills. Within each module we intend to teach:

• Basics of Physics in everyday life (how electricity works, why ice floats on water, how does water get sucked in through a straw, how does it rain, why does a thermos keep beverages hot/cold etc.)

• Basics of manual robotics for interested students

• Basic communication skills through tasks and exercises to improve their English speaking skills and enable them to confidently interact with people further on in their lives.

• Career Counselling, exposing the students to the different career opportunities which can be made available to them.

‘Teach for Vellore’ is a platform for deserving students who do not have the amenities and resources but have a thirst for knowledge and we would like to contribute towards this in every way we can. We hope for your full support in this endeavour.

An interative session was conducted in Government Muslim Higher Secondary School,Vellore with an aim to enlighten the students of 9th and 11th grade about various fields they can pursue after school.Apart from this,the volunteers imparted knowledge of formal writing skills and also gist of grammar among the students. The enthusiasm was at it's peak when the projects were displayed.
The zeal the students have for gaining knowledge is what inspires us to conduct TFV every year.

“The job you seek isn’t out there in some job description, it’s already inside you, aching to get out. “
These wise words were quoted by a popular career coach,John tarnoff. Education levels have increased prominently these days but is that enough to face the hardships that come in the world of higher education and beyond ? Certainly not. Millions of kids lack the sense of direction in their future education planning. Many of them have zero or negligible information about what they wish to seek and how to look for 'the job inside them'.This is where ‘Teach For Vellore’ comes in, which works with an aim to guide and shape the young minds to achieve their ambitions.

Our first teach for Vellore session was conducted in the Don Bosco Hr. Sec. School, in collaboration with Kawach, a non-profit organization.

In this session we interacted with the students of 11th Std. about the ‘career opportunities’ which they have ahead of them, thereby aspiring them to dream big.

This was our first step towards helping the youngsters of our society.
We hope to have more sessions in the near future.
