25.7% (18.8 million) of all U.S. children under 18 are of Latino origin

32 million Spanish speakers spread throughout the countries of the European Union and the United Kingdom.
Spanish plays a vital role in our family and community life, forging emotional bonds and cultural connections among generations.
However, the Spanish-speaking population of Latin American origin outside the region faces linguistic and identity challenges due to limited resources and opportunities.

This prompted mothers and teachers to launch the Yosoy project, symbolized by the palindrome "Yosoy," to empower children and youth to embrace their cultural roots and confidently declare, "Between here and there, Yosoy everything I want to be."

Why


That is why we got together to create an enrichment program that provides students with opportunities to expand on their Spanish skills
Our curriculum results from a team effort based on interdisciplinary pedagogy developed by Dr. Maria Luisa Parra (Harvard University), who has more than 10 years of experience teaching Spanish to Latino children and youth in the U.S. and advocating for their identities and well-being through language education, Marcela Fritzler, is dedicated to teaching Spanish in the context of Europe and Asia and is the author of LE/L2 and LH materials and Gabriela Badillo (Hola Combo) for whom images carry cultural meaning and are intrinsic part of any educational project.
