Our Tutors will promote literacy, math, and academic development to help school aged students raise performance to a level consistent with state education standards. The services will be provided through one on one direct sessions, or small groups of 2-4 students. Tutors will be responsible for providing evidence based strategies in an appropriate manner based on the student’s age, academic ability, learning styles, characteristics and special needs. Tutors will develop/design an education plan to address the student’s needs taking into consideration things such as race, culture, ethnicity and personal history.

Tutors will incorporate a variety of learning tools/styles in various places in the community such as libraries, museums, or anywhere that promotes learning. Services may take place after school, weekends, and/or anytime school not in session. Tutors must be committed to on-going professional and social development.
