Especially, the lack of a direct support person to give feedback and assist in learning is a major problem. This is even more challenging for students who are overall less efficient or whose access to education is already more difficult.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Fortunately, there are a number of projects that are dedicated to improving educational chances and equality for children and young students with different backgrounds and needs. We would like to introduce you to some of them here and show you how you can support them easily from home by volunteering digitally.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
