New Project (13)

Reconstructors get it.

Our small-group classes are live tutored by dedicated, talented, and experienced instructors: we call them Reconstructors. They inspire students to flex their critical thinking skills and tap their creative genius. They embolden them to see the world in a whole new way: as a place filled with Black scholars, artists, creatives, athletes, scientists, inventors, and leaders. A world that belongs to them.

Amazing lessons.

"… the lessons we are learning are amazing. We learned that if you have a goal, you should go for it and believe in yourself. You also should not hurt the environment. Try to find a way to do something without hurting the environment. BEST TEACHER!"

Engaging and inclusive!

"The inclusivity and the games and hearing about the history of the food was really fun and creative and I really like when we designed the boards and just looking at other foods and I really like the time where we like red rated like facials expressions on how much we really liked it and I really thought it was fun and I hope we can do it again thank you it was really nice meeting new people."
