Benefits of becoming a Teen-Tutor

  • If you’ve ever struggled with reading or phonics in younger grades, this is an opportunity to review and work on reading skills.  Research has shown that we learn and retain more when we teach others.
  • Teen-tutors learn strategies to help others overcome their reading issues.
  • Learn or review phonics to become a teacher’s helper or a private Teen-Tutor.
  • Learn to use decoding to help with the higher-level words encountered in advanced classes and on the SATs and ACTs.
  • Alerts colleges to how serious you are about a teaching career.
