Tha Ananya Center for Teaching (ACT) is a teacher training program. It's aim is to increase the number of teachers who are sensitive to the social and academic needs of street/slum children.

Informal classes try to provide a unique learning enviroment, and children are grouped by ability and interest rather than age.
