ABOUT THE PROGRAM

Our educational program is based on two basic needs of human kind:  Education and Exploration. In rural areas these needs are limited and sometime none existent. This program educates both sides of society under one general objective: ”Exchange experiences” while ”Empowering through Education” two well aligned concepts that neglect nationality, social/economical status and political /religious ideologies.

Why are we promoting English?

Would you be reading this if this was in Spanish? 😉 As you probably know, English is the most spoken language in the world, this means a high percentage of tourist will at least speak English during their holidays. In Panama, tourism is one of the main incomes especially in rural areas. Offering English to children will help the integration into an ever-changing multicultural society, improve their chances for a higher education and break future barriers for business development and cultural exchange with the international market/tourism.

What about the English courses?

We teach English language lessons in an interactive way. We also complement the learning with other activities such as: Yoga, Art, Music and Planting to help develop students in the best possible way.

Don’t panic if you have no experience, that’s why we are here for! All courses material will be given to you and other tools to help you along the experience.
