EDUCATION IS THE FIRST STEP TOWARDS
SUCCESS
UNLOCK YOUR INNER LIGHT
Illuminate Learning's founders Aditi Shanbhag and Vyshu Telukuntla were interviewed by the Brambleton magazine to give more insight how and why the organization came to life. Although we are a world wide organization with many tutors and students who globally enjoy our services, we still are forever grateful to where it all started in Brambleton, Virginia.
As students we understand that schooling from home can be challenging and at times confusing, therefore we wanted to provide an outlet for children to interact with tutors and other students by providing engaging activities and educational projects. We primarily developed our nonprofit as a way to help children learn, explore their interests, and gain knowledge during the closure of schools & summer programs by offering free tutoring and mentoring. Our goal was to develop a responsive platform for younger students to receive guidance from high schoolers and collaborate with their peers as they navigated through the new mediums of virtual learning. With our ample, diverse background experience in tutoring and teaching, we can effectively establish a connection with your child to ensure they gain the most from our lessons.
