We know you had a chance to meet teachers during our Open House, but let's be real—there's never enough time, and this is your opportunity to dive deeper with specific mentors and ask all your questions.

What is Meet the Mentors? It's a casual 30-minute Zoom panel where you can meet our teachers, learn about their classes, hear their teaching styles, and ask anything you'd like. No pressure, just conversation! Hosted by our Community Director, Ann, this is a great way to get to know the mentors behind the magic.
