Intensive Tutoring for Orang Asli Girls Vanisa and Jony
The Horizon Asia Education Association (HAEA), a volunteer-driven initiative committed to empowering underserved communities through education, is thrilled to announce that Vanisa and Jony, two talented girls from the Orang Asli community in Malaysia, are preparing to embark on an exciting international journey next month to attend Mee Fah ESL School in Koh Tao, Thailand. This significant opportunity marks their first time traveling abroad, and HAEA is committed to ensuring they are thoroughly prepared for the adventure that lies ahead.
Intensive Training Program for International Travel
To equip them with the necessary skills and knowledge, HAEA has organized an intensive one-month training program as part of our Global Mentorship Program. Vanisa and Jony attend daily classes designed to cover all aspects of international travel. These sessions focus on practical skills such as:
- Navigating airports
- Understanding flight schedules
- Crossing international borders
- Handling travel-related documentation
The training program is meticulously structured to address the unique needs of Vanisa and Jony. Given that this will be their first experience of international travel, the classes aim to build their confidence and competence in managing the various aspects of their journey. From understanding airport procedures to learning about customs and immigration, every detail is covered to ensure a smooth and stress-free travel experience.
Holistic Approach: Cultural Awareness and Adaptation
In addition to travel-specific skills, the training also includes sessions on cultural awareness and adaptation. This holistic approach ensures that Vanisa and Jony are not only prepared for the logistical aspects of their trip but are also ready to embrace new cultural experiences with an open mind and positive attitude.
Scuba Diving: An Exciting Addition to the Curriculum
A unique aspect of their upcoming experience at Mee Fah ESL School is the opportunity to learn scuba diving. This exciting addition to their curriculum not only introduces them to a new sport but also encourages physical fitness, environmental awareness, and self-confidence. Scuba diving lessons will provide Vanisa and Jony with a once-in-a-lifetime experience, broadening their horizons both academically and personally.
Personalized Support from Experienced Tutors
The daily classes are conducted by experienced tutors who provide personalized attention and support. These tutors, many of whom have extensive travel experience, share practical tips and insights that go beyond textbook knowledge. The interactive nature of the classes allows Vanisa and Jony to ask questions, engage in discussions, and practice scenarios they might encounter during their journey.
Building a Foundation for Future Opportunities
This intensive preparation is crucial for ensuring that Vanisa and Jony can fully benefit from their time at Mee Fah ESL School. The skills they acquire during this month-long training will serve them well, not just for this trip but for any future travels they undertake. It also sets a strong foundation for their educational experience abroad, allowing them to focus on their studies without the added stress of navigating unfamiliar travel situations.
Celebrating the Impact on the Orang Asli Community
HAEA is immensely proud of Vanisa and Jony’s determination and progress. Their upcoming journey represents a significant milestone, both for them and for the Orang Asli community. It highlights the impact of providing educational opportunities and the transformative power of support and preparation.
