LOVE THY NEIGHBOR
CO-TEACHER
During the pandemic, April had the chance to teach at a non-profit organization called Love Thy Neighbor, for which she and her sister organized a free public speaking class. They personally created the entire four-week course, from curriculum to schedules to showcases. The class consisted of 20+ elementary to middle schoolers, and was successful enough for them to run a few workshops with a condensed version of the curriculum in the following two years.
