Description
Tutoring is a great way to engage our schools and neighborhoods, but how do we move into deeper work beyond literacy intervention? Knowing that a child’s experiences and background can not solely be addressed through academic success, it is vital to provide tools to the child, their parents, and the college mentor that will aid in emotional self-regulation, understanding how trauma affects the way a child learns, retains information and their overall behavior. As we think about cultivating young leaders, we expose both those who are mentoring and being mentored to paradigms that lead to individuals’ wholistic wellbeing. This workshop will examine different frameworks to create transformative experiences with students, college interns, and parents. Speakers: Christian Gonzalez, Jenessa Cheema
