Christ Church student helps programme free tuition platform for Ukrainian pupils

Bartosz, who is from Poland, volunteered his time and experience to help create Ivy Ukraine, which connects tutors and mentors from across the world with pupils seeking support.

The project was conceived last year by the Ivy Polish Academy, where Bartosz currently tutors.

Free tuition is available in a wide variety of subjects in Polish, Ukrainian, Russian or English, provided by teachers and students in Poland and abroad.

President of the Ivy Poland Academy and Ivy Consultants, Krzysztof Daniewski told The First News: “The situation in Ukraine has forced millions of people to leave their homes, loved ones and friends.

“Many of them are school children who have been deprived of access to education overnight.

“That is why we created a special project so that children from Ukraine can gain and broaden their knowledge regardless of the situation in their country.”

Bartosz said: “I was inspired to work on Ivy Ukraine because I wanted to help. I decided that it would be good to use my skills and make a contribution to support Ukraine.

“Thanks to the cooperation of many talented people, we managed to create a platform for students from Ukraine, which allows you to connect with volunteers willing to support their learning."
