His scholarship has helped him meet academic and personal commitments while continuing his professional education. Today, Edwin also tutors other students at the Center.

“What I enjoy most about tutoring is seeing students understand a subject and, at the same time, gain confidence in themselves.”

— Edwin Alfredo Juárez Ariaz

Why This Work Matters

Educational barriers remain significant.

The Learning Center exists because educational opportunity is still far from equal for many young people in Oaxaca.

43% do not complete elementary school
86% do not complete middle school
81% do not complete high school
Average years of schooling in Oaxaca 8.1 years compared with a national average of 9.7 years
