In August 2018, Classroom Buddies Organisation hosted its first annual workshop for women. This annual workshop is highlights various topics of importance to young women such as gender based violence, mental health & wellness, female reproduction and career and motivational talk.
The tutorial sessions cover subjects such as Maths, Life Sciences, Physical Sciences, Geography, Accounting, English, Business Studies and Economics. It is compulsory for all tutors to go for mandated training three times a year.
All tutors have been recruited by Classroom Buddies Organisation from the University of Johannesburg and WITS University. The tutors selected are top students at their respective universities and were also former top performers in high school.
As part of our commitment to under-resourced communities, we also engage in on-site service work, volunteering and lending a helping hand where it is needed most.
