How Adolescents Can Benefit From The Hub
Consistent Cohorts With a Communal Feel
Cohorts that meet two half-days a week and age up with participants allow them to develop meaningful connections and meet their needs for a peer group.
Collaborative Group Activities and Projects
Participants learn from the diverse ideas, perspectives and insights everyone brings to the table, while honing their interpersonal skills.
Holistic Learning Environment
Participants are encouraged and supported to grow in a well-rounded way, in a socially healthy setting that fosters not just intellectual growth, but also “soft skills” such as teamwork, problem solving, and effective communication.
An Interdisciplinary Approach Driven by Curiosity Instead of Curriculum
Harnessing young people’s natural ways of learning, by using curiosity and the Socratic method to organically explore diverse topics that pique their interest, boosts engagement, broadens horizons, and deepens understanding of the world.
Caring and Skilled Facilitators
Experienced facilitators (two per cohort) challenge and support participants’ growth while also participating in group activities and projects themselves, modeling intellectual curiosity, higher-order skills, and lifelong learning.
Co-Created Learning Experiences
Participants take an active role in shaping the program, jointly choosing activities and projects with the facilitators, leading to greater ownership, engagement, and a sense of responsibility.
