ENEM – the National Exam – is the entrance exam that decides who gets a place at a Brazilian university, much like the SATs in the USA or A-Levels in the UK. For young people from the favela, passing it opens the door to higher education and better job prospects.
But public schools are underfunded and often of poor quality, which leaves their students at a real disadvantage on exam day.
Our Prep National Exam program gives students the preparation their schools often cannot.
We work out with each student where they are already strong and which areas need more practice.
Students get used to exam conditions and to working against the clock, long before the real day.
Without proper preparation, a capable student can lose out on the opportunity to attend university, and on the job prospects that come with it. Step by step, our students build the confidence to walk into the exam room believing a university place is within reach.
Like all our teaching, exam preparation follows Positive Discipline: firm, kind and full of encouragement.
