Subject: Academic Exploration Program by Harvard and Oxford Researchers



Hi Chinese Association of West Michigan,

I'm Dhruva Bhat, a Harvard and Rhodes Scholar alum, one of the co-founders of Lumiere Education.

I am reaching out as I believe some of your community’s families will be a good fit for our Junior Explorer Program.

This is an 8-week program designed for gifted middle school students (Grades 6-8) to work 1-1 with a PhD mentor from the world’s top universities to explore their academic interests and build a passion project over 8 weeks.

In the past, we have had students create research papers, business case studies, and analytical presentations. We also have an amazing financial aid program for students who may not be able to afford the program!

If you think one of your community’s families might benefit from the program, could you please share the linked brochure and blurb with them?

Let me know if you have any questions or would like to jump on a call to discuss the program!

Yours,

Dhruva

The Lumiere Junior Explorer Program is a program for middle school students to work 1-on-1 with a mentor to explore their academic interests and build a project they are passionate about. Our mentors are PhD students from top research universities such as Harvard, MIT, Stanford, and Cambridge. The program was founded by a Harvard & Oxford PhD who met as undergraduates at Harvard.

The program is selective and fully virtual. We offer need-based financial aid for students who qualify. Here's the brochure and application link!
