His proposal to the ECOWAS administration in Sierra Leone was approved, leading to the creation of a series of scientific diagrams designed to engage students through interactive learning experiences that involve seeing, feeling, and touching. These innovative tools are expected to enhance pupils\u2019 understanding and knowledge acquisition in the science field.<\/p>\n<p>Principal Foday Massaquoi expressed gratitude to ECOWAS for their support and commended Obinna Oba for his dedication. He highlighted the positive impact of the volunteer teacher\u2019s presence, especially in addressing the shortage of science teachers, particularly in mathematics, at the school. The principal urged ECOWAS to consider providing additional support by deploying more teachers to strengthen the science department further.<\/p>\n<p>Head of the Science Department, Keifa Kamara, acknowledged Obinna Oba\u2019s contributions and emphasized the transformative effect his service had on students\u2019 attitudes towards science. Pupils, previously apprehensive about science subjects, now embrace learning through the engaging and informative materials introduced by the volunteer teacher.<\/p>\n<p>Alpha Lamie Leigh, a student from SSS One Science and Technology, expressed appreciation for the innovative approach to learning facilitated by Obinna Oba. He noted the profound impact of being able to interact with scientific diagrams daily, which has significantly improved the learning experience for students.<\/p>\n<p>Promising to utilize the new resources effectively, he emphasized the potential for enhanced educational outcomes.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/sierra-leone\">Sierra-Leone<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Sierra-Leone.
