August 11: Kevin Berkopes
The Rotary Club of Indianapolis welcomes Kevin Berkopes, Founder & CEO,
Crossroads Education on Tuesday, August 11
With some schools starting virtually parents are being expected to guide their children through 6-8 hours of coursework throughout the day. Many parents have not been trained to teach and some do not have the time working a full-time job. Join us next Tuesday via Zoom to hear from Kevin Berkopes the founder and CEO of Crossroads Education.
Crossroads Education is putting together “pods” of students and pairing them with a Learning Pod Director – a qualified professional who has been trained and who will take over the eLearning duties. Crossroads is committed to equity in education and understands that not all families are able to pay for this service. The Crossroads team has been working to provide low-income families this much needed solution. Learn more on Tuesday about the learning pods and how Crossroads is making a difference in education.
Kevin Berkopes has been experimenting with what is possible in education for over 15 years. His pragmatic approach to education was formulated through combined degrees from Purdue University and the University of Texas at Austin, together with years of teaching experience. Through teaching, he learned about the diverse needs within education, from primary schools in rural areas to universities in urban cities, and realized that equitable success requires more than passion.
All are welcome at Rotary programs.
