“I saved the world...multiple times!”: the powerful impact of youth teaching younger children and their peers STEAM-related activities
Fellow
This is a guest blogpost by our talented Tufts University Tisch Summer Fellow, Michelle Nguyen, who conducted research with Boston's Learn 2 Teach, Teach 2 Learn program. Annually, our teen youth teachers teach 700+ children at over 25 community organizations. We have high expectations that our youth always exceed. As our program name suggests, we also believe that learning is deepened when youth are engaged in teaching others.
