Academic Cultural Enrichment Coaches
HUMANITIES / SOCIAL SCIENCES - COMMUNITY SERVICE
ACE Coaches aims to provide academic and cultural enrichment to underserved students living in the Single Resident Occupancy in San Francisco Chinatown, and through this process, establish more community involvement in the SF Chinatown community.
ACE Coaches teaches weekly Saturday classes to 3rd grade to 5th grade students at the San Francisco Chinatown YMCA. We not only provide academic support but also create a space in which our young students can maintain a connection to their Chinese heritage. Our club was founded especially to provide academic support to students residing in SF Chinatown's SROs*, or single room occupancy hotels. Coaches help to prepare and lead lessons that engage our students' creativity and critical thinking in the subjects of English, math, science, and cultural enrichment! We also host many fun socials for team bonding.
*SF Chinatown's SROs are often only 8'x10' in size, and many of our students reside in a single unit with their entire families. Many of the inhabitants of San Francisco Chinatown's SROs also live below the federal poverty line. The ACE Coaches program provides critical academic support to these students, who might not otherwise have a dedicated space for studying in their life.
