This is a very special English Language Partners bi-annual award which is presented to a learner who has shown outstanding progress in their acquisition and use of English. Jaswinder is from India and had never been to school before he attended our classes. Jaswinder not only studied and practiced his English outside the classroom, he picks up and drops of some fellow students so they may attend the class and has helped some of the other learners in his class to resolve issues they have had outside the classroom. Congratulations Jaswinder. We are all really proud of you.
