Sofia- my first and current student- helped me fall in love with teaching and mentorship. Watching her grow as a student and as a young person has been the most incredible experience and after each lesson I am more and more proud of her. At the end of each lesson, I ask if she is proud of herself and the work she did and everyday I get an enthusiastic, "Yes!" Even after a difficult lesson or talking through a tricky test that didn't go so well, Sofia has learned to take pride in herself just for trying her best.

But you can help. Closing this achievement gap begins with your support. When we teach kids to read, they don't just get to enjoy Harry Potter. They start to do better in math and science as well. They graduate from high school more frequently. They're able to read the application for that job they want. They gain confidence and dignity. They learn about the world about them. And they get to be a part of changing that world for the better.
