¿Qué han alcanzado hasta ahora y cuáles son los próximos pasos?
After 25 years of activity and relying on an innovative teaching-volunteering methodology, CPM now has approximately 1,400 volunteers, between teachers and administrative staff – all mobilized to meet the needs of over 2,5 thousand students: students who attend our English Course in person in one of our 12 Teaching Units.
¿Cómo se aseguran de que están haciendo las cosas bien?
Cidadão Pró-Mundo’s operating model is based on 3-hour long lessons during the weekends. Students attend classes once a week, on Saturdays or Sundays, depending on their teaching unit.
After completing 10 six-month modules (5 years), students complete the CPM course with a B1 level of English proficiency (intermediate level), which is equivalent to the third level of the Common European Framework of References for Languages (CEFR).
¿Cuáles son los compromisos sociales y ambientales a los que se adhieren?
With the application of this innovative methodology, developed by CPM and entitled ‘Rotating Volunteering’, each teacher partakes in 6 to 8 classes per semester on previously scheduled weekends (Saturday or Sunday), devoting an average of 5 hours per month for class planning and feedback after class. This enables volunteers to reconcile their schedule between personal commitments and their willingness to collaborate with the development of society.
¿Cómo se identifican los miembros de tu organización?
The mission of teach english lessons to residents of the outskirts and people in positions of social vulnerability over the last 20 years of history and activity, we have proudly served about 10 thousand students with the assistance of 4 thousand volunteers, ultimately consolidating and expanding our action model by appealing to the cause we advocate. Aiming to include all layers of society.
