A Visit to the Zoo with IntelleQ Learning Centre

IntelleQ Learning Centre feels that our visit to the zoo recently was such a relief since we live in this boring concrete jungle, where we lead a life of more-or-less robots or mindless machines. The National Zoo which has natural surroundings, filled with animals and birds and their sounds had provided the students and educators from  IntelleQ Learning Centre with a different and enriching learning experience. 

The visit was another one of IntelleQ Learning Centre's educational trip which encourages exploratory learning, not just for the students, but for us, the fellow educators of IntelleQ Learning Centre too because our students were asked to read the facts about the various creatures on the textual cues and boards provided in the zoos. Therefore, by reading and understanding these facts about the different types of creatures in the zoo, the students had some practice on their literacy and at the same time, they will become more aware of the importance of conserving nature. =)

A Trip to the National Museum with IntelleQ Learning Centre

IntelleQ Learning Centre would like to emphasize on our belief that the "live and learn" experience will definitely play a big role in our students' improvement. Therefore, IntelleQ Learning Centre also provides activities that get our students out of the classroom and into the “real world”. That is why Intelleq Learning Centre had arranged for another trip and this time we went to the National Museum with Dalia, Yousef, Atena and Ghazal Behzadi.

IntelleQ Learning Centre believes that every artifact in a museum tells a story. A coin from long ago tells you how goods were exchanged back in those days. IntelleQ Learning Centre also believes that places like museums and galleries can stimulate the students through inspiration. Museums and galleries can awaken both the students' natural thirst for knowledge and creativity. They help unlock the students' hidden potentials through their exhibits. By visiting museums and galleries, it will actually broaden the students' world and mind, and it is because of this, that a simple trip can prove to be a valuable part of IntelleQ Learning Centre's  "live and learn" experience for the students.

Hanging Around IntelleQ Learning Centre

IntelleQ Learning Centre is more than just an English learning facility. IntelleQ Learning Centre holds firmly on the belief that it is very important for us to create a homely, English learning environment. Parents are more than welcomed to just hang around and mingle with the staffs while students get to mix around with fellow IntelleQ-tualists from many different races and nationalities from different parts of the globe. Below are random shots on a typical Tuesday. Mrs Pooneh usually hangs around, surfing the internet or doing her own research while waiting for her daughter, Hana, enjoying her fun-filled English lessons.



IntelleQ Learning Centre's Beliefs About Education and Teaching

IntelleQ Learning Centre believes that every student who enters a classroom can succeed. As a learning centre, it is our duty to help students reach their full potential and gain the knowledge and skills that they will require in their daily lives as a democratic citizen of our society. Teaching should be student-centered and students should be accountable for their learning and behaviour. 

In addition, students should take responsibility for their decisions and actions. As a learning centre, we will help to facilitate our student’s pursuit for knowledge and help them acquire the communication skills, problem solving skills, and critical thinking skills which will enable them to be life-long learners. IntelleQ Learning Centre believes students should learn to be independent, yet have the skills necessary to work constructively in a team.

The IntelleQ-tualists' team is a role model for the students; thus, we should demonstrate respect, honesty, empathy, responsibility, promptness, and a desire for learning. To help nurture a desire for learning in students, we feel that education should be relevant and interesting. Education should incorporate the students’ families and communities when possible. 

IntelleQ Learning Centre also believes that every student has something to teach us. In order to facilitate sharing of ideas by our students, IntelleQ Learning Centre wishes to develop a safe atmosphere where our students feel that their thoughts and opinions are valued. 

Therefore, IntelleQ Learning Centre's teachers are more than a source of learning, or a facilitator of knowledge because IntelleQ Learning Centre's teachers are mentors and  trusted adults with whom students feel safe to share both accomplishments and challenges. Last but not least, IntelleQ Learning Centre believes that every student should be treated as an individual and that every individual deserves excellence in education.

Anne Sullivan - IntelleQ Learning Centre's Inspiration

           

           More famously known as "The Miracle Worker", Anne Sullivan was the lifelong teacher and companion to Helen Keller. Anne Sullivan was the daughter of Irish immigrant farmers who had fled to the United States to escape the Irish Potato Famine. Afflicted with trachoma, Anne had begun to lose her eyesight due to corneal scarring at age three, and was virtually blind by the age of five. When she was eight, her mother died of tuberculosis, and when she was ten her father, an abusive alcoholic, abandoned both her and her beloved younger brother at a poorhouse, Tewksbury's Massachusetts State Infirmary, to be raised there as orphans. Here her brother Jimmie, also suffering from tuberculosis, died in the Tewksbury infirmary, possibly victim to one of the many epidemics that routinely decimated poorhouse children.

     Through various benefactors, Anne received a series of operations to correct her vision. She was eventually accepted into the Perkins Institution, where she received additional treatment. Eventually her sight was restored enough that she could read for short periods. Meanwhile, she applied herself sufficiently to her studies that she graduated class valedictorian. Her talent and persistence had left a sufficient impression upon the staff at the Perkins Institution that she was personally recommended by its director to become Keller's teacher and mentor.

             On 5 April 1887, after a month of instructing Helen in the manual alphabet, and in civilized behavior, Anne experienced the "miracle" breakthrough that led Helen back into the world of communication and learning. While standing at the water pump together, with the water running over Helen's hand, Anne spelled the word "water" into Helen's hand. Suddenly Helen understood: the strange finger game they played was an attempt to communicate names and ideas.

          Soon Anne was serving as Helen's tutor and companion at Boston's Perkins Institution. Later, she accompanied Helen to the Wright-Humasen School in New York City as well as The Cambridge School for Young Ladies and Radcliffe College. While many admired her work with Helen, there were those detractors who were suspicious of the relationship, accusing Anne of manipulating Helen for her own purposes. Amongst the latter were those who felt Helen's socialist politics were merely a parroting of beliefs held by Anne and Anne's husband, writer and Harvard professor John Macy. Sullivan had met Macy when he had helped put together Helen Keller's autobiography. The couple divorced in 1913, but Anne's relationship with Helen Keller continued until Anne's death on 20 October 1936. In the year prior to her death, Anne's vision had relapsed into blindness.
