PTT3 launches: Better education for students in Moshi

With the launch of PTT 3, PROBONO Teacher Training (PTT) is entering its next phase. The aim is to improve teaching at twelve secondary schools, thereby enabling students to achieve better educational outcomes in the long term. Once again, Mwenge University is the local partner, providing the lecturers and infrastructure for the workshops. This time, the geographical focus is on Moshi and the surrounding area.

The new project builds on the successful experiences of the two previous PTT projects, in which teachers from a total of 23 schools were successfully trained. In PTT 3, 120 teachers will once again receive intensive subject-specific and methodological training over a period of four years – in regular workshops at the university and during classroom visits to the schools. The content focuses on STEM subjects and English. In addition, science laboratories are being built and equipped, and all schools in the program are being supported with books and learning materials. This provides the schools with modern equipment that enables practical teaching and thus sustainably improves the quality of learning.

With PTT 3, thousands of students are once again benefiting from teachers who are more motivated, better trained, and able to teach using a wider range of methods. After all, lessons that inspire enthusiasm and encourage critical thinking are the best investment in the future.

The project is funded by Engagement global with funds from the Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development (BMZ), the Cetto Foundation, the Hans and Ria Messer Foundation, and the Rivera Foundation.
