Program Assistant
Shad is a STEAM and entrepreneurship program for students in grades 10 and 11, where they live on campus and participate in a real-world design challenge that prepares them to take on social and economic challenges. As a Program Assistant, I was responsible for the education, mentorship, and safety of the Shad participants. I was in charge of delivering a set of academic workshops which involved creating lesson plans and content for a beginner audience. Overall, this was a very packed month where both the students and team members were engaged and developed at a very fast pace. Therefore, the skills I developed the most revolved around moderation, resilience, and proper communication.
