Our Mandate
The core mandate of CoffeeLearning is to teach basic math, computer, and literacy skills to adult learners. A secondary goal of CoffeeLearning is to provide volunteering opportunities for tutors and curriculum-writers, in order to teach a diverse range of subjects beyond just those aforementioned basic subjects. The CoffeeLearning project is an offshoot of the Back to Basics program at Fred Victor. Back to Basics provides free one-on-one tutoring in math, computers, and literacy. Fred Victor has graciously granted CoffeeLearning access to Back to Basics curricula, which will be used as a starting point for the development of fully original CoffeeLearning curricula in math and literacy.
About Me
I am Mike Hahn, the founder of CoffeeLearning. I have been a volunteer tutor at Back to Basics for 5 years, where I teach math, computers, and literacy for 3 hours every Tuesday afternoon. I have 16 years of experience working (mostly part-time) as a database programmer for BCS (used to be called Brooklyn Computer Systems), using the Delphi programming language. In the early 90s I was a technical support person at Fred Victor for 5 years.
