Frequently Asked Questions:
What is covered in tutoring?
Whether your child is below grade level, at grade level, or above grade level, we offer individualized tutoring plans for each child we serve. At the beginning of the program, we will assess your child to find their unique strengths and weaknesses. Based on the assessment results, we will tailor make a personalized learning plan for each student. Our world-class teachers will implement the plan for the duration of the program.
We cover the areas of Reading and Math in the program.
What is the time commitment?
Students and families must commit to 60-120 minutes per week of tutoring, plus 30 minutes per week of tutoring homework. Tutoring occurs on evenings and weekends, so it doesn’t interfere with regular school.
Tutoring begins Nov. 1, 2021 and ends May 13, 2022. We’re closed for holidays and spring break, following a traditional school calendar.
Where does tutoring take place?
Students will be placed in a virtual program or an in-person program. Our in-person facility is located in central Dayton, near downtown. The virtual program can be done from the comfort of your own home.
How much does it cost?
$0. There are no gimmicks or back-end sales. We’re providing a 100% free tutoring program for kids from low income households in the Dayton area.
