Services we offer

1) Special Education and Academic Support

Special Education is the practice of educating students in a way that addresses their needs. This process involves individualized education plans that systematically monitor the arrangement of teaching procedures, adapted resources, equipment and materials, and accessible settings. With early interventions, we support students with learning difficulties and disabilities to unveil their potential to learn one-on-one or in a group which in turn builds up confidence and self-esteem, achieve a higher level of self-sufficiency, enhances knowledge, improves learning skills and techniques, up-scales creativity and learn life-skills for future.
