Our Volunteers
Nikita Gupta
Ever since I was little, I have been helping my peers grasp ideas and concepts that they were previously having difficulty with. My friends would often tell me afterwards that I had a way with words that explained everything to them in a manner that no one else could. I am happy to have the opportunity to use this talent to improve the lives of those less fortunate than me. When I see the look on the faces of the children after they finally understand a problem or finally finished that really hard reading section, my heart rejoices. Even after only a few weeks of mentoring, I felt completely attached to this wonderful program. I couldn t help raving so much about it to my friends that they themselves were looking forward to become part of it. A2Z is everything anyone looks for in a tutoring program and I hope to continue volunteering here for many years to come.

I have been a volunteer at A2Z mentoring for 2 and 1/2 years and each and every day I tutor, I expect my student to learn something that will help him not only in school, but in life. I also expect learn something. My past mentees were often times struggling in their classes, but after talking to them for just a few minutes, I see why they are confused. When my mentees actually understand a topic that has troubled them for quite some time, they become eager to get more problems. I understand that these some of these kids might not have the resources that they need to succeed, and by volunteering my time, it is my job to help them to the best of my ability. The A2Z experience has been wonderful and I will never forget what I have accomplished.

"It makes me feel great when I walk into the classroom where I mentor and I see a young, eager face smiling back at me, ready to work hard and learn something new. Whether I am teaching my students how to spell "cat" or how to do algebra, the joy I see in their faces when they realize that they have just learned something new always makes my day special. I feel privileged to be a part of such a dedicated mentoring organizations, although in many ways we are more like a family than an organization. I look forward to many more enjoyable mentoring experiences in the future!"
