With a $500 donation, you can provide after-hours pay for a teacher liaison, one per Coding Club, acknowledging their extra efforts and commitment to bring computer education to under-resourced schools.
Why donate to teacher liaison after-hours pay?
Teacher liaisons serve as a bridge between students, mentors, and school staff, ensuring that students receive consistent support in their learning environment. Having a familiar, trusted teacher in the Coding Club helps students feel more connected to the program, making them more comfortable exploring new skills and tackling challenges in coding.
Coding Clubs are an excellent opportunity for students to develop technical skills, but they require guidance, especially for younger or first-time coders. Teacher liaisons are there to provide individual attention, answer questions, and reinforce learning. After-hours pay ensures teachers are compensated for their extra time, which allows them to fully dedicate themselves to helping students without financial concerns.
By supporting after-hours pay, you’re helping teachers who may not have backgrounds in computer science gain hands-on experience in this field. This exposure is valuable for teachers, who can bring their coding knowledge back to the classroom and inspire more students, fostering a school-wide culture of innovation and digital literacy.
