Balakun
Balakun connects Ukrainian students who want to learn English with fluent English speakers (mentors) from around the world who want to support Ukraine in a practical way. Mentors can contribute from their own homes, and it costs only their time.
In a time of war, learning English is not only about practicing a skill set: it is a way to communicate with the Western world.
Balakun offers volunteers the chance to teach on a one-on-one basis or in a group setting, including for specific occupations (medical, IT, business).
ENGin
ENGin is a nonprofit advancing social and economic development in Ukraine by building a critical mass of globally connected, English-fluent citizens. Our innovative online program pairs English-speaking volunteers with Ukrainians of all ages for weekly videochat conversations.
In just 1 hour a week, our volunteers make a huge impact – helping their conversation partners break the language barrier, offering friendship and emotional support, and introducing them to a new culture. No tutoring experience or knowledge of Ukrainian necessary: we welcome all English speakers age 13+ and provide the training and resources you need!
