The Learning Camp Initiative aims to improve literacy and numeracy skills among primary school children in Nigeria, using the Teaching at the Right Level (TaRL) approach and the Language Learning from Familiar to Formal (L2F2) methodology.
They will also partner with the TaRL Nigeria office to provide comprehensive training and technical support for teachers and facilitators on the TaRL and L2F2 approaches, equipping them with the skills to assess and group students effectively.
