The teaching philosophy at The Revolution Project is that we are all
students. Staff members enjoy daily opportunities to learn from interns and children, as well as to share in the teaching
process. At The Revolution Project, everyone is an intern and the lines between "student" and "teacher"
are in many areas, purposely indistinct.
