What we do

EEP is a non-profit program committed to empowering underprivileged and/or orphaned students in Brazil through access to an English education. We recruit and train English speaking teenagers who live near our students to teach them on a weekly basis. Learning English can be a difficult yet fulfilling process, and by pairing young teachers with our students both are able to experience the impact that learning a language can have. We currently run at an orphanage in Irati, Brazil with the hope of expanding to other locations.
