Experience
Director of Language Arts Enrichment Program 4th-8th Grade Instructor
Jan 2003 — Present
The students at Harambee, live within the city of Philadelphia. The mission of the Institute is to develop and encourage children from kindergarten through eighth grade to fully participate in the exploration of science and technology. In addition, Harambees’ vision is to use knowledge of science and technology as a means of promoting self-reliance in the African American community specifically and the world community in general. Harambee believes education should lead to self-reliance. Education should empower students to believe that they have the power to change the conditions of their community. Our instruction is given within the context of themes that concern the community. Subjects are unified around the following themes: Afrikan Origins and community, civil rights struggle and afrikan images in the media. Performance Standards adopted by the city and state are presented through an African centered lens. Satisfy the city and state education standards while developing productive members of the community.
