About Us

Who We Are

Young Educators Foundation (YEF) is a registered Ghanaian non-governmental organization (NGO) educational consultancy with a profound commitment to developing and improving literacy skills among young people from 8 to 18 years. 
We also provide training for teachers in the field of literacy, mainly spelling and reading. Our belief is that learning should be child-led, especially in this 21st century where younger generations are exposed to a plethora of information but need guidance. 
At YEF, we firmly believe that education extends beyond the classroom, and our vision is to ensure that every child in Ghana has the opportunity to unlock their full potential.

Since our inception, for over a decade and a half, YEF has been at the forefront of promoting literacy and comprehensive programmes including The Spelling Bee- GH/NG, The Young Debaters-GH/NG, and Epelle-Le GH, easy to teach and easy to learn, all designed to complement in-class learning.
Our legacy is built on a strong foundation of empowering young minds and enhancing the quality of education in Ghana. Over the years, we have touched the lives of countless students, teachers, and communities through our innovative programs and initiatives.
