[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Dongguk Lee] The Out-of-School Youth Support Center (hereinafter referred to as the Kkumdeulim Center) within the Pohang City Youth Foundation achieved a high success rate with all out-of-school youth who took the first elementary, middle, and high school equivalency exams of the year on April 9 passing (a total of 68 people: 3 elementary graduates, 8 middle school graduates, and 57 high school graduates).

The Kkumdeulim Center has been operating a ‘Smart Classroom’ to assist out-of-school youth in taking the equivalency exams, providing individual and group study guidance, and systematically supporting exam success by increasing learning motivation and alleviating test anxiety through ‘Learning Clinics.’

Also, ahead of the April equivalency exam, they held a ‘Mock Exam Day’ to help out-of-school youth experience the actual equivalency exam, reduce test anxiety, and strive for high scores.

Along with this, they fully supported online classes according to the needs of the youth to prepare for the equivalency exam.

A youth who passed the exam with a high average score of 98.85 said, “Thanks to the learning mentoring and online lectures provided by Kkumdeulim, I was able to pass with a high score,” and expressed gratitude to the Kkumdeulim teachers.

Yoon Young-ran, Executive Director of the Pohang City Youth Foundation, said, “I am very proud of our youth who did their best to achieve their goal of passing the equivalency exam despite various difficult circumstances,” and added, “We will spare no support so that out-of-school youth do not give up on their dreams and can achieve them.”

The Kkumdeulim Center offers various services for out-of-school youth, including a clarinet ensemble, learning support, meal support, English conversation, and the Life Cut program.

Out-of-school youth who wish to participate can receive guidance through Pohang Kkumdeulim, the Youth Hotline, or the Pohang City Youth Foundation website.
