Why Elham
A safe, simple and inspiring place to learn
We began as one evening English class of nineteen girls in Kabul in 2019. Everything since has been shaped by what our learners told us they needed — shorter lessons, offline access, privacy, and teaching in their own language.

Student Stories
What our learners say
Twenty-four thousand girls and women, and the messages we value most are the ones about what happened after the course finished.
“I use the Kankor mathematics course with my grade twelve girls every week. The past-paper solutions are clearer than anything I had, and my students are no longer afraid of the exam.”
Fereshta Amini
High School Teacher, Herat
“The lessons download, so I study when the electricity and the internet are gone. That one detail is the reason I was able to finish.”
Sadaf Yaqubi
Learner, Mazar-i-Sharif
“I had not been inside a classroom for two years. I started with English for Beginners on my brother’s phone, thirty minutes a day. I am now in the intermediate course and I teach my two younger sisters what I learn.”
Roya Hashimi
Learner, Badakhshan
