ConnectPlus Description
ConnectPlus was founded in March 2020, at the start of the COVID-19, by a group of high school and college students who wanted to create a positive outlet for individuals in either teaching or learning English amidst those difficult times. Since our establishment, we’ve recruited 500+ tutors worldwide and taught 600+ students across China, logging 10k+ hours of free English instruction.
HSE English is ConnectPlus' English tutoring branch. HSE's lessons allow many students who would not otherwise have the means to gain valuable English instruction. Our volunteer tutors teach 1 student at a time, using a specially designed curriculum that focuses on developing conversational abilities instead of rote memorization of vocabulary or grammar to help students gain the fluency needed to truly become global citizens.
