Curricula, built to be handed over
Image-first slides, lesson structure and teaching notes designed to work in low-bandwidth classrooms and be run by someone who did not write them.

English to Uplift & Utilize
We build English curricula and hand them to the teachers and organisations already working with the students who need them.
01 What we do
We equip teachers, not just students
Getting devices and connectivity to every student is the hardest part of remote teaching, and it is rarely the part we can solve. So we stopped trying to teach every student ourselves. We build the materials, and the people already in the room deliver them.
Delivered by local partners
Partner organisations and their teachers run the lessons. They know their students; we supply the structure and the materials.
Revised after every run
What the teachers report back becomes the next version. The curriculum improves because it has been used, not because we rewrote it.
02 Where we work
Three places, two different relationships
How we work differs by partner, and we would rather be precise about it than round it up.
-
Japan
BaseWhere EN2U is based and where our mentors are. Every curriculum is written here.

Guatemala
We taught directlyA year of weekly lessons with an NPO partner — our mentors in the room, one hour per group, every week.
-
Gaza
We supplied the curriculumWe provided the materials. Our partner delivered the teaching. We did not run these classrooms, and we amplify Gaza Soup Kitchen’s humanitarian work separately.
