Additional information

SHINE is a group run by MIT students that strives to instill confidence in young people at an early age by running a 9-week after school joint math and creativity program.

We help girls and non-binary students learn and practice math skills in a supportive environment. Part of each session is also dedicated to a creative activity. Students can bring math homework from their classes to work on if they wish and receive help from the MIT student mentors.
