Mr Littlejohn and Ms G. Teach Tomorrow's Entrepreneurs

Mr Littlejohn is the Teaching Artist that leads TE. Along with Ms G. they make our club a safe and fun place to learn, grow and think with compassion and understanding about the world we live in. go each week. He is a designer, educator and entrepreneur. He believes that entrepreneurship is so important and should be taught in schools. Particularly schools with diverse student populations. "Building generational wealth is part of the equation to building true equity in our society"

Ms. G works as an assistant to Mr. LittleJohn. She is in charge of the "spark" questions when we enter the virtual space. She leads us in a discussion on a range of topics to get a conversation going and to facilitate more connection between the students. She then leads the class in a movement activity which usually consists of stretching or jumping around to boost our energy. Then, she helps Mr. LittleJohn as he teaches a lesson on entrepreneurship.

Movement and Mindfulness

Ms G leads us in movements, stretching, and physical activities to to get us into a creative and relaxed state of mind.

Tomorrow's Entrepreneurs formed and organization called Change Nation. This organization represents a non-profit business model where each student has a role and title. Within their roles each student has responsibility to perform the functions of that role. For instance Boyan is the COO and is in charge of operations, organizing all processes related to the fundraiser and managing the donations. Jordan does the communications and Ethan manages the creative aspects.

Your ongoing sponsorship and corporate volunteer support, allows LEAP to continue to successfully encourage hundreds of students who are historically underrepresented in STEAM fields to imagine themselves as engineers, scientists, inventors and creative problem solvers of the 21st Century. Thank you for the gift of your generosity in support of our mission as we reimagine, rebuild, and renew our commitment to equity for NYC resource-ready youth during this time of recovery.
