FAQS

1. ARE YOU A PROFIT-MAKING OR NON-PROFIT ORGANIZATION?

WE ARE NOT REALLY AN ORGANIZATION AT THE MOMENT WE ARE MORE OF A PROGRAM, AIMED AT IMPROVING THE VIEW ON EDUCATION SYSTEM IN THE RURAL FET BAND.

2. DO YOU PERHAPS DO THIS TO MAKE MONEY, WHAT DO YOU EXPECT THE SCHOOL TO PAY YOU AFTER THE PROGRAM?

WE ARE ABSOLUTELY NOT AN EMPLOYMENT AGENCY, SO THIS IS NOT A JOB FOR US. IT IS SOMETHING WE SAW A NEED OF AND DECIDED THAT WE SHOULD OFFER THE SERVICE OUT OF OUR WILL. HOWEVER, WE ACCEPT ANY KIND OF A TOKEN OF APPRECIATION FROM THE SCHOOL.

3. DO YOU DEVELOP A STUDENT ONLY ACADEMICALLY OR ONLY IN TERMS OF LIFE SKILLS?

THE MAIN FOCUS IS OF COURSE THE CORE BUSINESS WHERE WE OFFER TUTORING. HOWEVER, WE GO AS FAR AS EQUIPPING THEM WITH LIFE SKILLS AS WELL AS NEXT LEVEL OF LIFE PREPARATIONS.

4. WHICH SUBJECTS DO YOU OFFER?

OUR TUTORS ARE FROM VARIOUS FIELDS OF STUDY SUCH AS MEDICINE, ACTUARIAL SCIENCES, SOCIAL SCIENCES, EDUCATION, ENGINEERING JUST TO MENTION A FEW SO THEY ARE EQUIPPED IN ALL SUBJECTS. THEREFORE, WE OFFER EXACTLY THE SUBJECTS WHICH THE SCHOOL SEES TO BE THE CHALLENGE.

5. WHEN DOES THE PROGRAM TAKES PLACE?

DURING THE TIMES WHEN THE STUDENTS ARE ON VACATION. A SCHOOL MAY FIND A PERIOD THAT CORRESPONDS WITH THE PERIOD WHEN THE STUDENTS ARE ON VACATION.

6. WHERE IS THE PROGRAM BASED?

THE PROGRAM IS OPEN TO ALL VARSITY STUDENTS WHO ARE WILLING TO SEE CHANGE AND DEVELOPMENT IN THE RURAL FET EDUCATION SYSTEM REGARDLESS OF THE UNIVERSITY THAT THEY ARE COMING FROM. THEY MAY BE FROM WESTERN CAPE, EASTERN CAPE OR ANY OTHER PROVINCE YOU MAY THINK OF

7. EVERY PROVINCE HAS RURAL AREAS WHICH OFFER FET EDUCATION, DOES THIS MEAN YOU WILL BE WORKING ON ALL THE NINE PROVINCES?

NO, NOT YET. FOR NOW WE WOULD LIKE TO FOCUS IN THE EASTERN CAPE SPECIFICALLY IN THE NGCOBO DISTRICT, WE WANT TO SEE THE IMPROVEMENT THERE FIRST THEN WE CAN EXPAND TO WHERE EVER THERE IS A NEED.
