About us:
English Academy for Newcomers (EAN) is a young NGO, based in Utrecht. We are a multicultural team of volunteers that helps people with the support from the Applied Linguistics team at Utrecht University. We help refugees and asylum seekers find stability in the Netherlands. EAN teaches English to refugees that want to improve their English language skills either to pursue an education in the Netherlands or for other reasons. We are a friendly, international team of people who are focused on creating an environment of continuous learning among our students and teachers.
Note: We are a volunteer organization and all positions are currently unpaid.

Ideally, activities would be recurring events which advance the students’ English ability. The Program Coordinator is also responsible for documenting the activities such that they can be shared on our website and social media. Activities can be either recurring or one off. For example, a recurring activity would be a once a month storytelling workshop for students. A one off activity would be an English language tour of the Utrecht city center.
