EnviroEd Teachers
EnviroEd is the great program that it is due to our qualified and enthusiastic teachers. Our program is entirely taught by our volunteer teachers, students from Harvard, who go to a school one afternoon a week and work with the students. Teachers are fully trained in classroom management, one-on-one tutoring, and in environmental issues.
