We are a volunteer organization that works to match self-motivated student volunteers with North Korean students to help enhance their English skills. We already have over 140 North Korean students we tutor and provide educational assistance to, but recently this population has widely grown and there are numerous students waiting to be matched with student tutors. As of right now, we are looking for over 100+ English tutors that can volunteer with our organization to help match this need. In addition, we are searching for additional members for Aurora’s board to help promote our mission in other ways as our workload continues to exponentially grow.
