Batari school: A journey of tailored learning and teacher empowerment

Since joining the ɫèAV GSE Partner School program, Batari School in Medan has witnessed a remarkable transformation in its approach to English language education. With students from diverse backgrounds, the GSE framework has empowered teachers to tailor their teaching methods to align with each student's specific language level. This personalized approach has not only improved language proficiency but also built confidence and competence among students.

Bapak Feliex Lee, a teacher at Batari School, talks about how the GSE Toolkit makes lesson planning easier and helps create quality, level-appropriate lessons for students. This tool reduces teachers' workload so they can focus more on student growth. The ɫèAV English Journey program, with its courses, tests and certifications, guides students to reach fluency efficiently.

The results

The results speak for themselves. Batari School has reported measurable progress in students' language skills, with average gains of 5.9 points on the GSE scale between grades 11 and 12. This success shows how effective targeted support and a clear plan are for learning a language. Before joining the GSE Partner School program, teachers worked with varied methodologies, leading to inconsistencies. Now, with regular tests, teachers can find out where students need help and give the right support to improve their English.
