The EducationUSA N. Macedonia runs a very successful Competitive College Club (cccnmk.weebly.com), a signature EducationUSA program that helps the best and the brightest high school students have an improved chance at admissions to a U.S. colleges and universities. In 2019 we introduced the CCC research project where CCC students under the mentorship of Peace Corps volunteers and local professors conducted various research projects in different areas. We’d like to continue with the practice and allow students to have research mentors that will help them focus and explore STEM research topics. This will not only help international students improve their English writing and speaking skills but also better prepare them for the U.S. college experience.
Required Skills or Interests: Willing to spend time explaining difficult concepts; personality compatible with the student's, easy to work with; has mentored high school students before or if not, has mentored undergraduate college students; has appropriate expectations for the student's time commitment to the project.
