| Abstract: | Brazil is a country that does not invest enough in basic education, thus leaving a gap in the knowledge of young people studying in public schools and jeopardizing their future. One of the main ways to get into college in Brazil is through the National High School Exam (ENEM), a multiple-choice test administered by the National Institute of Educational Studies and Research. In the project: Popular Course: a preparation for ENEM, students from the Federal University of Technology-Paraná, Apucarana campus volunteered to offer online tutoring of basic content in: biology, physics, geography, history, mathematics and chemistry, from Monday to Friday, during thirteen weeks. The main objective of these virtual meetings was to help interested students enrolled in the program to prepare for ENEM, in a dynamic and freeway. The volunteers were free to use the means they considered most appropriate for each content, from online physics experiments to game-based learning platforms, which contributed positively to the learning of the students enrolled in the project and consequently to a better performance in the tests.
