Spoken English Empowerment Program (SEEP)
Unlocking Voices. Unlocking Futures.
In rural Maharashtra, thousands of children and young learners can read and write English but hesitate when it comes to speaking and listening. With limited access to trained teachers, technology, and confidence-building activities, their potential remains hidden.
The Spoken English Empowerment Program (SEEP) by IndiaAsha Foundation is designed to bridge this gap. By combining activity-based learning, technology tools, and community engagement, SEEP empowers school children, college youth, women, and unemployed individuals to speak English with fluency, confidence, and pride.
Who We Serve
School children (Grades 5–10)
College students & unemployed youth
Women & community learners
