    Description

    Teaching English for Children

    We are looking for passionate individuals that want to share, teach and learn with children in vulnerable situations. At the Guatemalan highlands the literacy rates are alarmingly low, there are a long list of barriers that children need to overcome towards having access to education. This is why our education for change initiative is based on providing practical skills on English to children that allow them to have not only the skill but at the same time the enviroment-structure to develop other capacities.
