Our English Program:
Bridging Horizons, Empowering Futures
At the heart of our mission lies our English program, a transformative initiative designed to break language barriers and open doors to a world of opportunities for Afghan girls.
Here's a glimpse into what we do:
Small Class Sizes for Personalized Learning:
Our English program limits classes to six students, ensuring personalized attention and tailored guidance for every learner.
Empowering Dreams with Renowned Partners:
We collaborate with institutions like Arizona State University's English Learning Platform, the University of Leicester, and Canadian Women for Afghan organization to offer accredited programs. These partnerships provide high-quality education and recognized English certificates, boosting student prospects.
Meeting Urgent Demand:
Currently, 700 eager girls await enrollment, filled with dreams and aspirations. Your support can help provide them with the education they deserve.
Volunteer-Led English Classes:
Dedicated volunteer teachers from Europe teach advanced English to Afghan girls weekly. These sessions are more than lessons—they’re pathways to empowerment.
Guidance and Coaching:
Our reliable and dedicated students receive personalized guidance to develop their English skills and confidence.
Empowering Afghan Teachers:
Dedicated students can become teachers with our association, earning a stable income and gaining purpose and pride as educators.
Daily Online Classes:
Our trained Afghan teachers conduct daily online classes, teaching English to lower-level Afghan students. These lessons extend beyond the virtual classroom, shaping a brighter educational future.
Through our program, we’re not just teaching a language but building a community of empowered women ready to face the world with confidence. Together, we break barriers and create limitless educational possibilities.
European Coordinators for the
AWS English Bridging Program
Hello, we are Robin and James! We have been educators for many years - over 25 years teaching children in primary, middle and secondary school and over 5 years teaching in a four-year teacher education programme at a university. We have been lucky to see the way learning has impacted the lives of our students, and we are very excited to join AWS and their efforts to make this possible for women in Afghanistan. Whether we are teachers or students, there is so much to learn for all of us.

Mobile Education Pilot by KVS / UNESCO
The Mobile Education pilot project aims to mitigate the educational gap for Afghan girls aged 13-18, who are restricted from attending school beyond the sixth grade, by providing comprehensive mobile-based learning in academic subjects and essential transversal competencies. This initiative seeks to empower Afghan girls, foster capacity building, and develop a scalable model to ensure that thousands can access basic and advanced education despite socio-economic and geographical constraints.
