Teaching.
English as a Second Language
Through teaching ESL and sponsoring students, Global TLU has had the opportunity to see lives flourish due to education. Creating a ripple effect, those who are changed help and engage in their communities.
Through ESL, we teach classes for anyone who wants to learn English as a second language. We offer personal and group learning environments to meet every need. Using a performance-based, holistic curriculum we empower and equip students to be the best they can be in their new country and community.
With the increased international population in the Dallas, Texas metroplex, we have had the opportunity to teach many students from all over the globe, making Global TLU's reach truly international.
A web product for youth where they learn the importance of Character-Building, Making Good Choices, Positive Thinking and much more in a fun, interactive and engaging way.
PROGRAMS & PROJECTS.
Education is a key that will unlock doors of opportunity leading to better jobs, improved relationships, and positive involvement within communities. Embracing education gives you the desire to be intentional, disciplined, and consistent which are necessary tools that lead to a productive life and community.
The Global TLU team has enjoyed teaching and training people in our communities and the world. Families have become empowered by becoming proficient in the English language and stewardship training is life-changing because all participants in the classes are taught the power of supporting and taking care of themselves.
Training.
Financial Training
Through valuable training, Global TLU has been able to see the profound results of financial freedom, improving livelihoods through entrepreneurship, and providing hope and health to someone's life.
We believe that financial independence is a pillar of a God-honoring life, and builds strong legacies for future generations. Through a 9-week course, each participant learns to understand the connection between their smallest financial decisions and their overall financial health.
As a certified financial planner, Tanya believes the principle of being "debt-free" is truly freeing because the alternative is being a slave to debt. Debt can be overwhelming and cause undue stress and challenges.
Our stewardship training involves basic financial training:
-
how to use a budget
-
financial goal setting
-
shifting the mindset of how we use our money.
The classes are taught in small groups with the goal of creating new habits so that at the conclusion, the participants are well on their way to a lifestyle of financial freedom.
Stewardship
in Action
In Uganda, Africa the Global TLU team has encouraged and continue to support several Ugandan women who are making Ugandan jewelry that is sold in the USA. The proceeds are returned to these women so they can continue to improve their livelihoods and learn the skills needed to become an entrepreneur.
Hope & Health Gardening Project
The Hope & Health Gardening Project is a life-changing project that teaches Ugandan villagers how to grow a healthy garden and begin to implement a healthy diet.
All participants of the project receive the following:
-
vegetable seeds for planting
-
proper irrigation training
-
organic pesticides knowledge
-
follow-up throughout the planting and harvesting process
The response has been great and the villagers are excited to repeat the process and have the project spread to other villages. This goes far beyond just planting seeds, it provides hope and health both of which change how the villagers prepare nutritional meals, maintain a healthier diet, and prevent fewer diseases. The knowledge gained in this project has so many rippling effects that truly impact the health of an entire village.
Yvette Mathis Memorial Scholarship Fund.
Registration for the YMS Scholarship is now closed
Yvette Mathis was a vibrant woman who loved life. On May 27, 2019, she won her battle with cancer by walking into the arms of Jesus. This memorial scholarship is in memory of Yvette's love for education and desire to assist a female student that could be educated if supported financially. I will forever be grateful for Yvette's testimony, that no matter how difficult life may be, you can be
an overcomer and you can walk in grace and wholeness. Hope has a name and it's Jesus, love has a name and it's Jesus, salvation has a name and it's Jesus.
This $500-$1,000 award will be donated to a female student who fits the scholarship qualifications. The student will be featured on the Global TLU website once selected.
