Access to quality education in India is universally seen as “the passport out of poverty,” and since half
of India’s population is under the age of 25, this has become more important than ever in determining
India’s destiny. When access to quality education is denied, it shapes the entire lives of individuals,
and it can affect the lives of their families for generations. Across the Indian economy, stable jobs with
strong earning potential require high proficiency in English, yet the large majority of students can only
afford to attend government-funded Hindi-language schools, where the standard of quality is highly
variable, depending on the community.
In the case of underprivileged girls and young women in India, the transformative effect of English
language education is dramatically amplified. According to a United Nations report, not only is
parental education closely linked to a child’s educational achievement, but in fact, the mother’s level of
education tends to be more influential than the father’s. Educated mothers are able to reliably secure
resources that are otherwise unattainable, which includes securing quality education for their children.
Recognizing how investing in the education of young women has such a ripple effect on society,
ILSC–New Delhi created the Learn to Earn Program in 2010. LTE candidates are rigorously screened
and carefully selected for the program based on their potential to inspire further development in
their communities. Candidates benefit from an international standard of English education, and
study alongside foreign students from around the world. For many LTE participants, they are the first
members of their families to learn English, and most are the first women in their families to have
studied beyond high school.
Upon completing the LTE program, candidates receive at least 360 hours of instruction in English
over at least 24 weeks of study. They also receive additional workshops that prepare them for
the workplace, including resume writing, interview skills, and financial literacy. Further, they are
given assistance in obtaining government-issued PAN cards which allow them to work legally, and
opening bank accounts. The candidates are then placed in reputable companies on paid internships,
where they gain valuable work experience and use their language skills, with the ultimate goal of
empowering them to provide for the financial support of their younger siblings.
Sponsorship of a young LTE candidate literally changes the life a young woman forever, while giving
her the tools to sustainably support her entire family and community.
