with the youth of rural Africa. One year commitment.
Tanzania Education Corporation (TEC) is a Boston based NGO whose
mission is to Educate the Future Leaders of Tanzania. TEC has worked
with Tumaini Junior School, a high performing K-7 primary school in the
town of Karatu since 2009. In its first ten years of operation, Tumaini
Junior School has consistently ranked in the top 1-2% of schools in the
country. Tumaini Senior Secondary School is a new four year (Forms 1-4)
secondary school which opened in January, 2016. The new school is
located in the neighboring village of Makuyuni, an hour and a half from
Arusha, and has a technology focus.
TEC is developing a STEM (science, technology, engineering, math)
education program to enhance the standard government curriculum to
include computer programming.
The goals of the program are:
