Here at TNLA we pursue a Leadership Education model. Mentors, trained using Leadership Education methods, present a variety of projects and classes for youth approximately 11-16 years old.
In the Practice Scholar classes we inspire youth to sample scholarly studies. The classes are prepared to personalize the education of each youth as they take another step in their Leadership Education journey.
In the Project Scholar classes the youth are inspired to pursue the topic in a personal and fulfilling way. With the youth fully in Scholar Phase, they are expected to come to class prepared in a way that they feel good about. We use the class time to have as many inspirational moments to help refine and develop each individual's genius and purpose as possible.
