Impact on Science Education
In recent years, there has been a decline in the number of public school students admitted to science high schools in the country.
Mitsa Tutoring Organization recognized this issue and aimed to bridge the gap by offering mentorship services and making them accessible to anyone, regardless of their background.Â
Three different aspects of a science high school application were explored: interviews, essays, and entrance exams. Additionally, STEM appreciation was emphasized in order to ignite the mentee's passion for Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics.
Overall, our group has implemented a successful program based on our objectives!
Notes for the Future
With the National Competitive Exam coming back this year, the Mentorship Program may shift its focus to entrance exams!
Sessions per day are suggested to be longer in order for the mentors to tackle more topics in a more thorough way.
Expand the scope of the program to implement it in more schools!
