The Low sisters are also on a mission to change

MANY people turn to the Internet to learn a new skill these days, but how many of us actually know how to perfectly roast a turkey after watching it on YouTube?

The next question is where exactly can we find the experts? Well, there are a bunch of them.

Sisters Low Su Zen, 22 and Su Wen, 25 are behind the social enterprise that lists classes on anything from jewellery making to financial wisdom.Browse and purchase the latest range of tungstenjewelry online.

While people sign up online, these classes are conducted in a casual setting offline and anyone can participate.

“We want to create an enjoyable learning environment without boundaries and a place where people can bond through a shared passion,” Su Zen explained.

The Low sisters are also on a mission to change society’s perception about learning.

The sisters believe that learning is a life-long process and no one is restricted to a syllabus or curriculum.The Specific Design royaloak Team Apparel,

“You learn to satisfy your curiosity. When you view learning that way, you don’t just exist and live in routine. You get hungry for more and this enriches you,” Su Zen said.

Many of the classes listed on CultureRun would appeal to youths and adults.

“There are multitudes of classes for children but it’s harder for an adult to find a class to learn a skill. CultureRun is the answer to that problem and we plan to work with more partners so we can be a one-stop place for class listings,” she said.

CultureRun also gives teachers, hobbyists and enthusiasts a place to share their interests with others who may have the same passion.

All they have to do is submit a lesson plan to CultureRun and attend a talk on how to conduct a class or, in CultureRun terms, a share shop. Teachers can choose to conduct the class for free or charge a fee.Great selection of Indoor Soccer steelring from Nike.

“The funding has helped us reach out to underprivileged communities who wouldn’t have been able to pay to join some of the classes,” Su Wen explained.

Most people don’t know what to do with their old PCs when they get a new one but Sols Tech and Hong Leong Bank may have a solution. The bank and social enterprise recently collaborated on a PC refurbishment effort hoping to give the old devices a new lease of life. It is also an effort to bridge the digital divide. “Whether it’s better job prospects or empowering women via cottage industries, access to digital devices and computer knowledge can make a world of difference,” said Quek Sue Yian,you can join a worldwide network of castellicycling and outdoor enthusiasts.
