Teach English online

to children in China

Our one-on-one English classes mean more learning (awesome) and less distraction (also awesome). We believe geography should not impact a child’s chance to learn, and with our online platform educators can teach and children can learn from anywhere

We pride ourselves in finding educators who are knowledgeable, passionate and ready to make an impact. We provide the curriculum, and they teach English online on their own schedule.

Our innovative online platform enables an unprecedented exchange of knowledge. Fluent English-speaking teachers connect with students online around the world to provide them with a learning and cultural experience as they become global citizens (in pint-sized form).
