The Girls Inc. of NYC motto is to be "Strong, Smart, and Bold."

What one change could this group make that would improve your volunteer experience?

have the opportunity to have socializing out of the time provided. More "lesson" planning preview, review, and feedback.

I learning new skills about teaching and how to connect to 6th and 7th graders (8th graders so far have been challenging unless they are self motivated to learn and contribute into the program).
