In cooperation with the Libraries of Love, the AYLUS San Diego Committee kicked off the 2023-2024 Solution for Hope on-line classes to raise funds for the Libraries of Love. The 5th Beast Academy on-line class was kicked off on July 10-July 16, 2023.
Beast Academy is a mathematics program for elementary and middle school students, and highly qualified high school volunteers will be teaching the Beast Academy curriculum. Currently at the San Diego Branch, enough students have signed up for this course for it to be offered in four levels:1, 2, 3, 4 and 5. Through tutoring sessions hosted virtually over Zoom, our volunteers teach students numerous informative mathematical concepts that help to bolster problem-solving skills and improve their mathematical knowledge.
The distinguishing factor of this activity is that in the Beast Academy program, all participants are in this for a great cause. All proceeds from the tutoring sessions will go to support the Libraries of Love, a project to build libraries for K-8 kids in Africa and provide books to them. Through this activity, our volunteers strive to create a positive impact on the world using their own abilities; with their hard work and support, we all see the light at the end of the tunnel.
17 students attended the Beast Academy Activity on July 10-July 16,2023. Overall, there were 33 participants in the program.
