Free tutoring

with Parent Counseling and Education as well as Family Guidance

At our free learning support program, children and teenagers come to LenZ after school and have a healthy snack together with the present learning coaches and volunteers. During this time, we exchange ideas and chat with each other. Afterwards, the learning session begins. The children and teenagers work on their homework or learning sheets, or they work on their online learning platforms, depending on their individual needs in small groups or one-on-one. Once all the children and teenagers have completed their tasks, the leisure time begins: sports, creative activities under the guidance of the LenZ team.

Before new project participants are enrolled, clearing conversations take place. We clarify the support needs of the children/teenagers and get to know the parents. In addition, we discuss the legal framework and the house rules (supervisors, voluntary participation in the project, etc.) with the participants.

Parent counseling and family guidance

The involvement of parents is crucial for the successful educational path of children and teenagers. Parent counseling enables active participation and involvement of parents in their children's education and strengthens their abilities to be the best possible parents for their children.

Mothers and fathers with a refugee or immigrant background face significant cultural, linguistic, and informational barriers and can therefore only provide limited support to their children in terms of educational opportunities, school, and learning. At LenZ, parents are involved in all aspects, advised in individual or group settings, and specifically informed about topics such as education, social issues, or adult education opportunities at information evenings. We provide knowledge and know-how about life with children in Vienna and serve as a contact point for questions and problems.
