ESP Teachers

Who We Are

ESP teachers are MIT students, alumni, faculty, and community members; they are also students at other universities, local professionals, and other interested people in the Boston area. All of us are drawn together because we share a love of teaching, because we want to share what we are most passionate about, and because ESP brings together the students in Boston most interested in learning.

We are compiling a sample of biographies from the diverse set of people who have taught for ESP. Most are MIT undergraduate students, but graduates, faculty, alumni, and other community members have also participated in our programs.

Teach Anything

One thing that sets ESP apart from most other programs is that we put almost no restrictions on what teachers can teach. When we say anything, we mean it: classes can range from particle physics to pottery, from swing dancing to algebraic number theory. Some classes, such as cooking, have been hands-on, while others have built giant geodesic domes. One group of classes put on a play during the weekend of Splash. If you are interested in teaching, all you have to do is tell us what you want to teach, and the class is entirely in your hands to run.

Volunteering

Teaching is as easy as telling us what you want to do! See our Volunteer to Teach page.
