YPPs goal is to ensure that MLWs understand that, for the purposes of equity, their work as near peer math facilitators who are from the same community as their students, is indispensable and vital to the broader education community.

  • 12-25 hours per week of programming (4-5 hours of plan/prep + 2.5 hours of workshop, set-up, debrief per week)

Compensation

  • $15 / hour

  • Payments every two weeks, from The Young People's Project Inc.

  • Debrief (student's response to each activity, most/least effective, needs improvement)

  • Plan (revise / create lesson plans, assign roles, collect materials)

  • Practice & Professional Development (mock facilitate, give each other feedback)

  • Create or Design a new game or activity
