One, two... tree! - Mexico

Über uns

One,two...tree! is a non-profit organization working on education in Latin America. We introduce English classes to underprivileged primary school children in local public schools and with local non-profit organizations. We also conduct fundraising campaigns to promote specific educational projects or objectives.

Vision
We believe in education as a long-term investment to tackle poverty. Education creates an infrastructure for future economic development that will, one day, pay back these efforts to the communities where these children grew up..

Why English?
Speaking English in Central America is a valuable plus for any starting career. The average level of the language is low and tourism is an increasing industry with huge potential both in Guatemala and Mexico, and teaching English is a job that no one else but One, Two… Tree! can do in these villages: There are no English teachers accessible to poor children in these countries.

Methodology
• One, Two.. Tree! finds local and non-profits organizations to introduce free English classes with volunteer work.
• These local partners are schools and small organizations involved in educational projects.
• One, Two…tree! supplies volunteers, materials and resources for the development of English classes.
• Local partners provide classrooms facilities, students and help us to integrate their educational system.
• We don´t pay a rent for using their premises, and they don´t pay a fee for getting English courses.
• Thanks to this simple structure, we are able to reach a large number of kids with little money.

Project:
• México: Since February 2019 we have presence in Zinacantan, Chiapas. We are currently teaching in the local primary school, in a Center for Social Integration, and in a local non-profit where we reach up to 700 kids.

Tomé Rodríguez is the administrative director of One,two...tree! in Latin America.
