About Remote Learning:
The online tutoring program began at the beginning of the COVID 19 pandemic. Since our learners had to stay at home, the online program was necessary for learners to continue their studies. Since then, this program has had a significant impact on our learners as well as our tutors. We engage tutors around the world who connect with our learners based in South Africa to help them improve their skills academically and get them into universities. We tutor learners from 8th to 12th grade.

Quotes from former tutors:
“The tutoring program was a great interactive experience with other peers and children via virtual lessons. It drew me to stay with Inkululeko to spread the knowledge I have to others.”
