Harvard Ed Portal

As an Ed Portal Mentor, I sought to provide innovative and engaging lessons to elementary and middle school students in the Allston area. Mentors were asked not to provide homework help, but instead to help students develop their curiosity on topics not covered in conventional schooling. For example, while working with a third-grade girl who was interested in space, we did various hands-on activities to help her learn about the size and scale of the solar system.
