How To Enable Education 21 Back to School Mission Possible Campaign

By Tabitha Makumi, Enabling Support Foundation Communications and PR.

How long do you think schools will remain closed? That’s one of the most common question with parents and teachers who fret on how long it has taken to get back in classrooms.

With Enabling Support Foundation’s educational app for students in early learning, Kusoma has been used effectively during COVID 19 school closures in Kenya and Uganda, and has been instrumental in enhancing education in the region.

The Founder and CEO Robert Zenhausern and educators within the organization have been busy in structuring a home curriculum and ensuring early child education is supported at all times.

In development are Enabling Support Foundation educational packages for Language Arts which will be available on the website's theater soon.

In the meantime support the Back To School Mission Possible Campaign by engaging with leaders in the education sector and let students get back to school.

Don't forget to donate to Enabling Support Foundation through a GoFund Me Fundraising Campaign to support equality in education across the globe.

Difficulty in Early Child Learning? What to Expect from Educators in ESF

Lessons by Robert Zenhausern, Enabling Support Foundation CEO and Founder. The way we teach early reading is the biggest mistake in the history of Education. It handicaps all children and it’s impossible for the 20 per cent of the population we label as “dyslexic” Reading is traditionally taught using phonetic decoding or “sounding out”. It is a long process as the child learns the names and sounds of the alphabet and combines them into words they can say.

Lessons on Showing Compassion to Children with Dyslexia

Lessons by Dr. Robert Zenhausern, CEO and Founder at Enabling Support Foundation The way Dyslexics are taught can be considered as abuse of the disabled. The most common problem in Dyslexia is in phonetic decoding. But phonetic decoding is the way reading is taught and so these children have difficulty reading. Furthermore, Sally Shaywitz has shown that dyslexics have an abnormal response in the brain system for phonetic decoding, indicating a physical brain disability. The remediation strategy used by the Education Establishment is simple. That is to fix the brain dysfunction or teach phonetic decoding anyway. This is equivalent to remediating the blind by making the light brighter. They teach the deaf to read without phonetic decoding. Why not the dyslexic? Questions to move the conversations along in children and adults alike are how does it feel to be dyslexic? Have you had a “tip of the tongue”? For most, you know how you get when ...
