On April 11, San Diego Branch students hosted the first ever online Challenge Camp tutoring program. The purpose of the activity was to allow older volunteers to tutor and teach younger students on various subjects of interest.
Due to the current circumstances, AYLUS San Diego moved their activity online, teaching the students through zoom video conferences. Due to several factors, this activity has received more volunteer participation, to a point where the entire lesson was several 1-on-1, 1-on-2, 1-on-3, and 1-on-four sessions. First, both the students and the volunteers joined a main zoom room, for attendance and a general briefing of how the activity will operate. Next, they split up into several break-out rooms and begin the lessons. At the end of the activity, everyone returned to the main zoom classroom for a final check, and to receive feedback for the new activity.
Through this event, young students were taught various subjects, including Chinese, Spanish, English, Piano, Saxophone, Clarinet, Chess, History, Physics, and Math.
The following volunteers participated in the 1st online Challenge Camp: Nathan Yang, Anny Wang, Claire Jiang, Ruiqi Ding, Jonathan Backues, Edward Liu, Victor Ku, Anthony Yao, Eric lin, Eric Li, Conan Wu, Hausen Wu, Luke Qiao, sarah li, and Alexander Backues
