Gems English Program
Our Gems English program empower our students with the foundational skills they need to become effective readers and writers. Every lesson ends with an exercise that asks students to go beyond the lesson to apply the skill they are being taught. These exercises encourage students to use real-world texts and their peers to deepen their learning.
