Empowering Young Minds: College Students Volunteer to Teach English
College students in Mumbai are volunteering to teach English to children in municipal and government-aided schools. Through this Hidush Foundation initiative, young volunteers dedicate their time to help underprivileged students. They focus on improving English-speaking, reading, and writing skills to build a strong educational foundation.
Why English Skills Matter
English proficiency is an essential skill in today’s world. The National Education Policy 2020 highlights the importance of communication and language development for holistic learning.
To support this vision, Hidush Foundation created a volunteer-driven English teaching program. It focuses not only on grammar and vocabulary but also on building confidence through regular speaking and interactive learning.
Volunteers Making a Difference
This initiative stands out because of the human connection it creates. The college students who volunteer as teachers learn valuable lessons in empathy, patience, and leadership. The children see their mentors as role models, and the volunteers witness the true impact of education.
Through this program, Hidush Foundation bridges the gap between privilege and opportunity, ensuring every child has access to learning that inspires confidence.
Learning Beyond Classrooms
The program uses fun and creative methods like storytelling, role-play, and educational games. These techniques make English easy and enjoyable for students. Children who once hesitated to speak now participate actively in classroom discussions. This shows how a little encouragement and the right guidance can transform lives.
Building a Brighter Future
This volunteer-led program is part of Hidush Foundation’s broader education mission. It includes scholarship programs, school infrastructure development, and teacher training initiatives.
