Cusco is one of the most touristy cities in the world, where English is the key to a future full of opportunities. At Cusimaky, we firmly believe that every boy and girl deserves opportunities to move forward. Therefore, we created this program where they receive between 2 and 3 weekly English classes. By joining, you not only teach a language: you are opening job doors and breaking down inequality barriers.

The Cusimaky Association is an educational project for school reinforcement, aimed at children and adolescents in vulnerable situations and at risk of social exclusion.
The schedule is from 3:00 PM to 6:00 PM; the children complete their school homework, engage in educational games and, in addition, they have 40 minutes to learn the English language on the days: Monday, Tuesday and Friday in the park.
Main Activities:
- Dynamic classes: You will design fun lessons focused on breaking the fear of speaking. You will use games, songs, flashcards, and interactive activities to help the children learn naturally.
- What will you teach?: You will focus on solid foundations and practical vocabulary for the Cusco context: greetings, numbers, colors, body parts, family, and simple everyday phrases.
- Reinforcement & motivation: You will help resolve doubts from their English classes at school, boosting their confidence and proving that learning another language can be an incredibly fun experience.
- Cultural exchange: You will share stories or traditional games from your home country, giving the children a direct and real connection with an international culture.
Days and Hours: Monday to Friday, from 3:00 PM to 6:00 PM, 45 minutes of conversational English every day. The rest of the time is supported by homework and play dynamics. Fridays are for recreation.
Schedules & Shifts: Monday to Friday, 3:00 PM to 6:00 PM. 45 minutes of conversational English every day.
