ORIGIN & MISSION

Our Story

THE FOUNDING BELIEF

AiGoLearning began with a simple idea: young people can grow by teaching and help younger students grow through learning.

01

From Local Classrooms…

What started with two Scratch + AI classes at a local school in Plainsboro, New Jersey has grown into a nationwide community of high school and college student teachers and young learners.

02

…To Nationwide Reach

Today, we have expanded beyond AI and coding, but our original idea remains the same: empowering the next generation of mentors and students to learn, teach, and thrive together.

OUR CORE CREED

Students Teach. Children Learn. Both Grow.

Today, we have bases in both New Jersey and Seattle, and have partnered ourselves with multiple local Schools. As we expand, we hope more students will experience the joy of finishing a challenging computer program and more instructors will gain the experience of teaching through our program.

ABOUT GABRIELLE

Hi! My name is Gabby, and I am part of the Promotion Team at AiGoLearning. I joined AiGoLearning about four years ago, starting as a student who was eager to learn how to code and how I could incorporate the little skills I had into something. I then realized I would love to share and educate other kids, becoming a teacher’s assistant, with the information I had learned from these classes. Then, with lots of training and practice, I moved up to a teacher, teaching classes. Simultaneously, I became interested in Social Media and joined the StemForAll Marketing team, helping to plan various social media posts and finding organizations to partner with. Unfortunately, the team wasn’t as successful as we would have liked it to be, so I decided to join the Promotion Team for AiGoLearning in hopes of putting my skills to good use and to gain more promotion experience.

Daniel Liu Founder

ABOUT DANIEL

Hello! My name is Daniel, currently a High School Senior. In my sophomore year, I became a teaching assistant to the very first Scratch + AI class. The next year, I took over the class as the teacher. When the pandemic started, I began training other teachers to teach these programming classes online. To expand the program, I co-founded AiGoLearning. As Steve Jobs once said, “Everybody should learn to program a computer”, and I believe AiGoLearning can help communities achieve that goal. In my free time, I love to spend time with my brother, drive around, and just relax. Traveling is also fun.

ABOUT STANLEY

Hey! My name is Stanley Jin, the way of programming is a fantastic process. The sense of achievement after immense struggle of coding is truly amazing. Now coding for the past 4 years, I understand how to apply programming and especially AI to the real world by creating all sorts of projects. Aside from programming, snowboarding has been my hobby since I was very young. Now, I stepped up my game and now work as a snowschool professional (more commonly known as snowboarding instructor). It is my pleasure to meet you, have a wonderful day.

Initatives

Teacher Training: The training team’s goal is to train and evaluate new student teachers. This includes hosting training weeks and developing materials. We’re looking for experienced teachers to join us.

Student Teacher Recruiting: The recruiting team focuses on reaching out to student teachers. So far, we have reached hundreds of teachers all over the country. If you join this team, you will have the opportunity to meet and interview different people.

Teaching Quality: The Teaching Quality Team’s goal is to bring quality education to students and guidance to teachers. To continue doing so, AiGoLearning is looking for experienced teachers and leaders who bring engagement and enthusiasm into their classes to help others do the same.

Curriculum Development: If you are passionate about specific coding languages and want to help develop courses, the curriculum development team is for you! Many of our courses are actually outlined and created by students. Developers create the outline from scratch and the necessary presentations, project prompts, and solution codes. Subsequently, the developers would be consulted on most things regarding the new course and will play a large role in training new teachers as well.

Event Management: AiGoLearning has already hosted 2, very successful hackathons. These events require months of planning and preparation in multiple aspects, such as financial, outreach, and marketing efforts. Organizers gain value experience in these fields and working against the clock on a big project , as well as practice communicating with well respected organizations and individuals. Joining the event management team will help you gain valuable experience and help organize wonderful events.

STEM for All: Teens Teach Kids Coding (TTKC) is a nonprofit mission led by AiGoLearning that aims to bring the power of education to everyone through computer science. We provide free, high-quality, virtual coding courses to students from underprivileged and underrepresented groups in STEM*. We seek to partner with organizations such as local libraries, senior centers and non-profit organizations to spread our resources and reach people in need. We have courses for children aging from 5-15 years-old, from preschool/kindergarten level to high school level.

Girls Go Coding: Girls Go Coding is a non profit project which aims to give more access to girls so that they can learn their next essential life skill, coding! Young girls lack female STEM role models and environments in which they feel welcome. Girls Go Coding offers that through free, live, high quality coding classes. Classes are available to all children from 5 to 15! We are looking for people who share our enthusiasm for opening up the coding field to more girls, whether you can provide content, become a teacher, marketing, or just another point of view.

TTK Clubs: TTK Clubs is an AiGoLearning initiative that provides the guided opportunity to start a TTK Club (Teen Teach Kids) in your school or community as a high school student! Not only will you gain respect amongst others and add a leadership role (club president) to your resume and college application, but you will also gain the crucial experience of teaching others how to teach, create a warm teaching environment, interact with students, etc… all while increasing coding opportunities for the next generation of coders! For more information check out https://aigolearning.org/ttkclub/.

Journalism Team: Do you like writing, outreach, or media production? If you answered ‘yes’ to any of the previous questions, then you should consider joining the AiGoLearning Journalism team! The journalism team is a team of members and aspiring writers focused on documenting and acquainting the public with the efforts made by AiGoLearning and its student leaders to provide programming learning and teaching opportunities across the country! We do this through authoring and publishing articles on a wide variety of topics, ranging from AiGoLearning initiatives to exclusive interviews with prominent STEM leaders. If you’d like to see what we’ve done so far, our articles are posted on medium at https://medium.com/aigolearning. We hope to see you soon!

AiGoLearning Junior Team (AJT): AJT works with students younger than the typical internship-age. Our team creates monthly practice problems for the students attending our classes, and other students too, to try out. This allows them to reaffirm their skills they learn in the classroom, expand upon their knowledge, and teach them the valuable skills of research, perseverance, and communication within our community of young students. AJT also works on teaching its members how to teach from a younger age, and starts them off as teacher assistants in real classrooms.
