Entrepreneurship, Critical and Creative Thinking, Curriculum Design, Assessment Guidelines et al.
Speaking with Coastal Renaissance news, HRH Olori Olufunmilayo Oluyede confirmed that she has partnered with the 1Million Teachers Training organization in building a critical mass of highly trained and enterprising education changemakers who will lead grassroots development within Ayede Ogbese and its environs.
According to her, “Without qualified and motivated teachers, our children stand very little chance of realizing their full potentials. There are, unfortunately, massive shortages of qualified and competent teachers across the world. The case is no different with us in both urban and rural areas of Ondo State and in Nigeria at large.
We are all certainly in dire need of modern solutions to the long-standing problems of shortage of teachers in our various communities”. Welcome 1MT!
