[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters, Reporter Hong Jeonghwan] The Ulsan Metropolitan Office of Education announced on the 22nd that it will provide personalized tutoring for students' basic academic skills from the 21st until February 26 of next year.


Classes will be conducted remotely due to the resurgence of the novel coronavirus infection (COVID-19).


The Office of Education plans to reduce learning gaps by enabling students to thoroughly review the material learned this year.


Additionally, it will operate Doodeurim classrooms and after-school basic academic classes during the end of the school year and winter vacation, and support online and offline materials such as Bae·I·Se·Camp and Chaeum Plus.


The self-diagnosis Bae·I·Se·Camp supports Korean and Mathematics for 1st to 2nd grade elementary students, and Korean, Social Studies, Mathematics, Science, and English for 3rd grade elementary to 3rd grade middle school students. Chaeum Plus supports reading, writing, and arithmetic for 1st to 2nd grade elementary students and slow learners.


An official from the Office of Education said, "Despite the COVID-19 situation, teachers at all schools are continuously making efforts to support students' academics and emotional well-being through online and offline methods," adding, "We will support slow learners to confidently start their studies next year through basic academic support during the end of the school year and winter vacation."



Meanwhile, since June, the Office of Education has been monitoring the status of basic academic support across all schools. Each tutor (instructor) supports individual face-to-face learning for 1 to 5 slow learners.
