What are some distinguishing characteristics of TECC Summer Institutes?
TECC Summer Institutes seek to maximize social impact by targeting locations that have potential for long-term relationships with TECC which have a demonstrated need for English and technology training. Volunteers not only participate in forums with younger students, but also heavily invest their time in training teachers, who will then pass their knowledge on to hundreds of students. Also, the student-centered nature of TECC as an organization allows for great flexibility and openness to student contributions and ideas. For one, students are able to exercise creativity in designing their own curriculums.
