The Problem:
Girls from low-income families in India aspire to speak English but do not have anyone within their families to practice speaking English.
How it Works:
- Students sign up to be an English Learning Buddy through our Google Form below
- Expected Time Commitment: 30 minutes per week for 10 weeks
- Buddies will be matched with a girl from a low-income family in India
- Buddies and students connect once a week via Zoom meetings
- Weekly Meeting Schedule: Sunday 9:30 am to 10 am EST
- Students in India read from an English children's book while Buddies provide constructive feedback on pronunciation
- At the end of the 10-week program, Buddies receive volunteer service hours.
Please note that this volunteer opportunity is limited to girls in Grade 7 to 12. Students may sign up via the Google Form below:
