1-to-1 Tutoring: We tailor our lessons to the educational needs of the unique students we teach. We teach academic subjects, practical skills, and self-confidence to ensure each child who studies with us will learn as much as possible. Tutorials are geared to students’ current academic abilities and encourage growth towards the academic standards expected of top universities around the world.
Access’ Self-Directed Learners' Tutoring Program is a 40-session, metacognitive learning development program that develops learning competence among each student in 40 sessions. Our goal is to help students develop fluency in literacy-based applications and in foundational self-directed study skills that aid learning. Another intent is to strengthen students' skills in self-directed learning strategies as well as to facilitate their ability to construct meaning from informational text.

Teach For America, the organization I lead, launched a tutoring initiative in fall 2020 following research that shows that high-dose, high-quality tutoring is one of the most effective ways to combat learning loss. One study that looked at the impact of having a well-trained tutor meet three times a week with a group of up to four students found it came close to providing the equivalent of nearly five months of learning. A 2021 meta-analysis from researchers at Brown University concluded tutoring has a more significant effect on student achievement than smaller class sizes, vacation or summer classes and longer school days or years.
In the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic, tutoring has increasingly become a popular tool for learning recovery. By the end of the 2021-22 school year, 23 states (including the District of Columbia) initiated or passed legislation mandating or encouraging tutoring initiatives, and federal pandemic relief funds were made available for school districts to spend directly on tutoring programs. This is all for good reason: over 100 randomized controlled trials show that high-impact tutoring is one of the most effective ways to accelerate student learning.
“Our team at the National Student Support Accelerator is thrilled to contribute to this national effort to provide students with the learning experiences that they need to engage in school and to thrive. This effort to expand high-impact tutoring really is the best opportunity we have to meaningfully improve outcomes for students across the nation,” added Susanna Loeb, Director of the National Student Support Accelerator.
Increases substitute teacher recruitment efforts, expands Ohio’s EdChoice program which provides families with vouchers to pay for private school tuition and requires tutoring programs in public and chartered non-public schools. Tutors will be required to be a retired teacher, substitute teacher, or an individual that meets the eligibility standards set by the superintendent. The Ohio Department of Education will be responsible for administrative, implementation, training costs, and technical assistance to the Educational Service Centers in coordinating tutors to programs/ schools.
Includes a plan to set aside $75 million which would fund the Close the Gap program. The Close the Gap program provides $1500 to Missouri families to fund educational expenses. The $1500 grant funds can be used to gain access to tutoring, extended school day educational programs, and tuition for learning centers. The bill was revived after its former bill, 3014, was struck down due to the lack of detail on how the program would be implemented. The bill has been approved by Missouri’s governor and delivered to the Secretary of State.
