Online Math Tutoring
-
We are excited to share that TutorMe is now available to students in grades 7 through 12 to provide an additional resource for support in math. Before accessing this service, please note the following:
- Students may use this service to virtually connect with a live tutor who can assist with math learning.
- All tutoring sessions are recorded and shared with the school district, therefore it is important that students represent themselves and their school in a positive, productive, and respectful manner. The recording of any sessions in question may be sent to district personnel to follow up with students and access can be terminated if not used appropriately.
- There is not a predetermined session length. So, students can be on for five minutes or 25 minutes as needed.
- Students will need to provide the work/assignment/concept to the tutor as a starting point.
- Students can access a tutor when they are struggling with a concept, would like to improve their standard-based performance, are working on test corrections, etc.
- Tutors are trained to support learning in a manner where answers are not just given to students, but learning occurs through questioning and modeling examples.
- Finally, we ask that students and parents view the following video to ensure a smooth experience when connecting with a tutor: https://drive.google.com/file/d/13Xp7SbVCuPjrW_8zaQ9SWBO0faVHochv/view.
- After watching this video, students can access the service through Clever.
