Here at IPF we provide an online portal for teachers to improve and develop their teaching skills.
This portal can be used to improve the student’s language skills and provide career guidance using a fun virtual classroom.
This has proven to be a success with our local teachers and institutes, giving them an extra tool to prevent early school drop-outs.
