Our Story
The idea
On a visit to a project in Comuna 13 in 2016, Ed and his friends saw potential in the transformative experience of sharing languages. The local community and visiting foreigners were able to connect despite language barriers, have fun and help each other learn the language through direct experience. What if this could be formed into self-sustaining model?
The model
We are a socially sustainable business with a cyclical model. We teach English, Spanish and other skills so we can invest the profits into impact projects for the community. Our students use these languages and skills to grow community through volunteering, and we employ many of them as teachers, tour guides, and more.
