Tutor Corps
Tutor Corps has been in the education business since 2002, providing individualized support to students in grades K-12 for subjects ranging from English, math, social studies, and science to enrichment and remediation. Years prior to the Covid-19 pandemic, Tutor Corps transitioned to the virtual setting and honed best practices to ensure that our virtual support replicated the most crucial elements of the in-person tutoring experience. Tutor Corps believes in the power of 1:1 direct support, relationship-building, communication, and quality educators. To that end, our trusted management team has hand-picked a corps of talented instructors who, in addition to being experts in their fields or credentialed teachers, care deeply about the “whole student” experience and have gone through a 10 point vetting process. Our management team is dedicated to ensuring that our tutors are trained, supported, and empowered to support students, whether academically or socio-emotionally, as well as to building strong relationships with our partner schools, students, and families. We serve students with a range of needs, whether they need more academic challenge, culturally-relevant content, foundation skills development, skills to support with executive functioning, or extra support due to a learning disability. A passion for learning is contagious. We strive to inspire a love of learning in students of all backgrounds and abilities. To advance this goal, we have established the Tutor Corps Foundation. The Foundation awards grants and scholarships to addressing the needs of under-served students.
