Program Details

The English language is highly needed in Panama as a country due to its geographical position, the Panama canal and its increasing tourism. However the average panamanian doesn't have the opportunity to practice this language eventhough is taught at most public schools. The best way to be fluent is traveling to an English speaking country or paying a private Native speaker tutor which is not affordable for many. This program aims to provide the average high school and university student with that opportunity at an affordable cost.
