Welcome.

Opportutoring (OT) is an e-learning nonprofit organization providing one-on-one English tutoring to refugees around the world. Our goal is to help our students improve their English proficiency so they reach more opportunities. Our tutors are located in Montreal, London or Beijing while our students are often in Turkey or different countries in the European Union.

Only 1% of the world's refugees attend university compared to 34% worldwide.

What We Do To Help.

Tutoring

Our main activity is the tailored online 1-on-1 English tutoring lessons we provide our students several times a week.

Raise Awareness

One of OT's goal is to humanize the 'refugee crisis' and help raise awareness through empowering displaced people's own voices.

Support

We aim at empowering our students through sharing their art, campaigns as well general support towards their goals.

Educate

Our volunteers' growth is paramount to us, as we strive to provide them with new skills and the opportunity to hone their skills as educators.

Events

OT's events reflect our core values, we welcome all who wishes to attend. Whether through our Live Exhibits or smaller talks, we'd like to meet you!

Build communities

Online or off, our core mission is to build communities. Whether through our classes or within our chapters, we aim to foster global citizenship.

Wondering what it is like to be a tutor? Read some testimonies!

Through Opportutoring, I met new people that I started working with and with that something was created. Our tutee has had a few issues with his living and work situation. One day we all came together and decided that we would find a solution, it was really nice to see people wanting to do good in this world. Another experience that marked me was my tutee returning to our group after a few months of silence, everything just went back to the way it was and we keep skipping a few lessons to have conversations about life and stuff that happens, just like old friends.
