Mission:
Empower high school and early college students to create meaningful learning experiences for their peers.
Vision:
LanLearning's goal is to enhance youth students' stakeholdership, especially within their own educational experience and professional journey.
Academically, our mission allows the youth to better understand the core values of education and how learning happens. More broadly, however, our vision is to uniquely enable young people to learn, understand, and practice early professionalism. We choose education as our medium to enable this goal because it is a setting young people are most familiar with.
By driving social impact at LanLearning, our fellows gain the confidence, understand the challenges, and learn the mindsets to then go on and solve some of the deeper and more critical issues of our society. When considering the audience and demographic we serve, enabling the youth to help problem-solve core issues of humanity is the long-term vision of our effort.
We all benefit when a young person sees a problem and takes action.
Values:
LanLearning's values relate to the unique process of delivering a quality peer learning experience–one that starts with courage, ends through persistence, and is ever-filled by presence.
