Teach to Lead
Building Classrooms for LIFE
About Us
Teach to Lead began as Teaching Young Minds, a simple dream that was born by a personal need: helping my cousin learn English when she had no access to a bilingual school. Her determination inspired the founder to start teaching, not just her, but soon many other children who, like her, were eager to learn but lacked the resources.
​
Growing up in a developing country showed the founder that education shouldn’t be a privilege; it should be a right. But as more students joined, TYM faced a challenge: limited tutor availability and fixed class times.
​
That’s why (& how) Teach to Lead was born, to reimagine access to language learning. Now, we empower underrepresented students through free English language tutoring, book donations, and school supply distribution, supporting quality education and greater opportunities in Honduras and across Latin America.
