My name is Elly Kang, and I'm a senior at Marist School in Atlanta, Georgia! I am passionate about artificial intelligence and data science and am especially focused on mitigating structural inequalities. I have dedicated much of my work to creating equal opportunities and reducing the wealth and gender gap, with a focus on STEM fields.
I've been tutoring since 2017 at American Assimilation Helpline! (AAH!), and I truly enjoy working with students. So far, I've learned so much throughout my experience and become increasingly passionate about guiding students in need to the right path. Specifically, the AAH! computer science team and I have been making coding accessible for low-income, immigrant, refugee, and homeless students who have little or no access to STEM education. My goal is to reach out to as many students as possible and introduce computer science while promoting academic success. That's why I've decided to dedicate as much time as I can to igniting students' potential as part of my pursuit to end systemic inequality.
Hello, my name is Abhishek Kona, and I’m one of the co-founders of AAH! I'm a freshman at Rice university. Since 2017, our program has been tutoring students in order to enlighten the futures of many bright tutees as well as provide opportunities to those who may have been denied such chances. It gives me great pleasure and delight in working with these students, as everyday, I’m more than happy to share my knowledge and create a better world for them. By helping everyone, I hope to not only see their growth and potential but expand these educational circumstances even further globally.
Hello everyone, my name is Abhinav Kona, a co-founder of AAH! I'm a freshman at Rice university. I've been a tutor since 2017, and I enjoy working with students and value the time I spend with each child. Since not everyone has access to sound education, I make sure to teach in a way so that each child has the potential to succeed in academics. My belief is that the improvement and success of each individual is key to affecting a family's life in an improved world. As we keep improving and expanding, immigrants' lives will change.
I am a sophomore at Wheeler High School in Marietta, Georgia. I love teaching and helping the students on various topics. I have taught students at AAH! since 2019 and every session has been very interesting and fun. I am a part of the orchestra in my school but in addition, I learn the Viola da Gamba, an orchestral instrument from the 16th century. I participated in the Duke Tip SAT and was recognized for my math score. I have played basketball for East Marietta for two years and will continue. Lastly, I have been learning a form of classical Indian singing for the past 5 years. Intro to Java, Algebra 2, Algebra 1, Pre-algebra, Middle School Math, Elementary Math

Hello everyone! My name is Jay Imperatori and I am a sophomore in the Magnet Program at Wheeler High School in Marietta, Georgia. I absolutely love working with kids and enjoy helping people learn. I have been tutoring with AAH! since the beginning of 2021, and I make every tutoring session with my students fun and entertaining, while still learning the content needed for their specified subject and grade level.

I am a sophomore at Campbell High School. I am currently part of Grassroots Law Project, Georgia Youth Justice Coalition, and Fair Fight Action. Grassroots Law Project is an organization that combines grassroots organizing with legal expertise to combat racial inequality. Within this group, I serve as a student lead. I instruct and mobilize over 1,000 students from all around the world to organize against racial injustice in their own schools by giving them resources, directing them to training, and answering questions. Georgia Youth Justice Coalition is a group of students that are registering voters, organizing youth-led canvassing programs across Atlanta, training and paying young organizers, and leading voter information campaigns. My role is an outreach leader. I reach out to other organizers across the nation, building connections and partnerships to boost our fight and vision. For Fair Fight Action, I participate in text and phone banks to notify and persuade voters to act on important issues relevant to them, such as calling their senators to vote "no" to voter suppression laws or to share their own experiences of voter suppression. School activities that I am involved in are Student Government Association, Beta Club, and the International Baccalaureate Leadership Team Committee. Following the Atlanta Spa shootings, I led the effort by the No Place for Hate campaign in out school to organize against AAPI hate and discrimination of any kind. Lastly, I have my own initiative that aims to combat health inequities caused by COVID-19 by providing supplies and support to underserved medical clinics.

My name is Medha Gunda. Currently, I am a junior at Wheeler's STEM/Magnet program for advanced studies in Marietta, Georgia. Every student deserves an opportunity to ask for help and learn in some way, which is why I have joined AAH. When I was younger, the methods that my school taught me were confusing for me, and I had to be taught a different way. Here, I'd like to help the student learn in whichever method works best for them, so they can reach their maximum potential. "Education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world." I am excited to be teaching younger kids and sharing my knowledge with them!

Hi! My name is Manya Chugh and I am currently a junior in the Wheeler High School magnet program in Marietta, Georgia. Last year I started my own women’s empowerment club, which I am co-president of. This year, I have also become the co-founder and co-president of the book club at my school. I am a member of Model UN, student government, environmental club, and helping hands. I was elected the junior class vice president by my peers and have served at the head for various subcommittees in student government. I am pursuing the healthcare pathway as well as the marketing pathway at Wheeler right now. I love to run cross country and play soccer. I have a lot of experience with kids and love to teach and help out whenever I can. I would be most helpful for any reading, writing, or social studies tutoring for all ages/grades topics, but I can also help with science and math for elementary students.
I am a junior at Wheeler High School in Marietta. I’ve done Science Olympiad for six years and have won many medals, including a 3rd place medal at Nationals in 2018, plus an 8th place award in the state competition this past year.

I also volunteer quite a bit and amassed over 80 hours last year through tutoring and helping at Books for Africa, a nonprofit organization that collects donated books to provide to kids in Africa who may not have the resources they need to study in school. I have a job as a babysitter and a tutor that I’ve been doing for four years. I’m also an Honor Roll and Principal’s Honor Roll student. The programming languages I know are Python and Java.
