Who are we?
Engaging English is a youth-led nonprofit based in NYC that supports newly arrived Chinese immigrant students from K–8 in learning English. We match students with bilingual high school or college volunteers who help them with reading, speaking, and writing in a way that feels comfortable and relatable.
Why us?
It's FREE
Our program is completely free of charge to ensure that economically disadvantaged kids have a chance to excel in English, while our tutors get volunteer hours!
It's 1-on-1
When students are paired with a one-on-one tutor, we can better understand their specific needs and provide personalized support.
It's Easy
All you need is a device, and you can learn at a time that works best for you!
