Introducing the Learn To Be Tutoring Corp

The 2024 Learn To Be Tutoring Corp

Early in the pandemic, there was talk of a new National Tutoring Corp - a group of highly motivated, passionate individuals who could help kids who needed it most. Help them to improve their math skills and learn to read. The National Tutoring Corp never materialized the way we wanted. So we're starting our own. We're going to mobilize the largest group of young people to help us fight for equity in education. Join us.

Chelsea

"Our tutor seems to have been able to quickly build a good rapport with Cameron. I was worried that Cameron might be resistant to tutoring on the weekend, but those concerns were unnecessary. In fact, Cameron's face lights up when he hears that he will have tutoring this weekend. I think he looks forward to the sessions!"
Cameron
2nd Grade Reading Student
"I love seeing the interaction between the student and the teacher and the way the tutor explains materials to the student that makes easy to understand. Giving enough time to the student to solve a math problem on its own instead of rushing and giving the answer."
