Therefore, they cannot pass the complex high school entrance exam required to enroll in Cameroonian high schools.<\/p>\n<p>The goal of the Tutoring Program that starts in August 2016, is to improve girls&rsquo; academic performance and personal growth and help them pass the high school entrance exam that is required in Cameroon to enter 9th grade.<\/p>\n<h2>Peer-to-Peer Tutoring<\/h2>\n<p>Aumazo plans to tutor girls up to grade-level in their classroom setting by using the Peer-to-Peer Tutoring method. Local city dweller teachers trained by an expert educator from the US will travel to the Bankondji village to provide expertise, experience, encouragement and assist girls in problem-solving and help them improve their skills.<\/p>\n<p>The Tutoring Program will give <strong>80 girls<\/strong> a unique educational reinforcement opportunity. Girls, like Marie Justine who \u00ab\u00a0wants to learn to boost her intelligence,\u00a0\u00bb will participate in this program tailored to prepare them during the school year 2016-2017 to pass the high school entrance exam required in Cameroon to enter high schools.<\/p>\n<div class=\"video-wrap\">\n<div class=\"video\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/RD291oBKNJM?rel=0&amp;controls=0&amp;showinfo=0\" width=\"100%\" height=\"100%\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<h2>Tutoring Program Goals<\/h2>\n<p>We are confident that by developing the ability to comprehend texts in reading comprehension, math and other subjects, positive changes will happen. The girls will stay engaged and achieve success rapidly. Hence, we could anticipate an at least <strong>80%<\/strong> success rate in the high school entrance exam as opposed to the current <strong>17%<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>Aumazo cannot do this without your help. Your continued support is vital to the success of the program. To achieve the\u00a0<strong>80%<\/strong> success rate,\u00a0the organization\u00a0needs to raise an additional <strong>$35,000\u00a0<\/strong>to pay for the teachers&rsquo; salaries, food and travel expenses and\u00a0provide girls with books and school supplies.
