Professional Development Webinar on Teaching Reading and Writing to Low-Proficient Learners

The Ghanaian Union in Thailand (G-Union) will host a professional development webinar titled “Teaching Reading and Writing to Low-Proficiency Learners: Practical Strategies for Real Classroom Impact” on Saturday, 3 October 2026, from 7:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. Thailand time via Google Meet.
According to the official event poster, the session will feature Mr. Rashid A. Asare, EdTech Chair, AI Educator, Educational Technology Advocate and Classroom-Innovation practitioner. The programme is timely for teachers working with learners who require additional literacy and language support, as reading and writing proficiency forms a foundation for participation across the curriculum.

UNESCO Bangkok identifies literacy as an important component of equitable education and lifelong learning, while its teacher-development work emphasizes improving both pre-service and in-service teacher training across the Asia-Pacific region.

The webinar also complements Thailand's continuing efforts to strengthen educational quality and learner outcomes. The Thai Ministry of Education's 2025–2026 policy calls for equitable access to quality education, learner-centred approaches, modern technology, foreign-language development and improvements that focus on learners' achievement. Ministry of Education Thailand The urgency of targeted literacy support is also reflected in current initiatives involving government agencies and international education partners: in 2026, UNESCO, Thailand's Department of Learning Encouragement and education authorities in Tak launched work to strengthen literacy instruction for migrant children and youth, including teacher capacity-building, learning materials, mentoring and literacy assessment.

UNESCO Such initiatives reinforce the importance of equipping classroom teachers with practical methods that respond to different proficiency levels rather than relying on a single approach for all learners.

Against this wider educational context, G-Union's webinar provides an opportunity for foreign teachers, Ghanaian educators and other education professionals in Thailand to examine practical strategies for supporting struggling readers and writers and translating professional learning into measurable classroom impact. Participants can join through the QR code provided on the event poster, with further information available from the Ghanaian Union in Thailand.

By investing in teacher development and sharing classroom-focused approaches, the initiative supports the broader goal of ensuring that learners who begin with lower proficiency are given meaningful opportunities to progress. The webinar's central message is therefore clear: strengthening teachers' capacity to respond to learners' literacy needs can contribute not only to better reading and writing, but also to greater confidence, participation and long-term educational opportunity.
