Our online tutoring program mirrors the effectiveness of our high-dosage in-person tutoring, with the added convenience of being accessible anywhere. Students are grouped into small, focused sessions, ensuring personalized attention. Our online tutors are hired and trained specifically for your district. Here, a live instructor adeptly covers essential curriculum areas, specifically targeting and bridging learning gaps. This approach enhances understanding and fosters a more engaging and interactive learning experience.

High-impact tutoring requires consistent lessons delivered over a period of time to deliver results. For example, 3-5 sessions per week. On-demand services are more akin to homework help and are not effective in impacting academic growth towards grade-level standards.

Sessions are typically delivered in 45-60 minute increments, however lessons can be adapted to be as short as 30 minutes.

Through block scheduling each of our tutors work between 20-40 hours per week, in order to maintain high tutor retention rates as highly trained W-2 employees.

We are certainly able to employ volunteers as tutors. They still will go through our rigorous background check process along with our internal training before being deployed to a school site/district.

Our tutors either have a bachelor’s degree or are in pursuit of one. They all have tutored before and received training. While many tutors have extensive experience in education, many tutors are highly qualified professionals looking to make an impact in their community. Oftentimes, tutors that weren’t looking to pursue a career in education become interested in taking on positions directly with the district they serve or formally pursuing a teaching career.

Tutors hold a minimum of a bachelor’s degree or are enrolled in a higher education institution. All tutors complete an internal certification process including content-based assessments and background checks.

An hourly rate is determined based on group size and content area. Districts are invoiced for the number of hours tutors work. Pricing is not determined on a per student basis, allowing tutors to serve more students throughout their shift.

We do have some certified teachers who may be interested in tutoring and we encourage them to apply; however, Given the nationwide teacher shortage, we do not focus our recruitment efforts on those professionals. Most folks with an active teaching credential are currently engaged in full-time teaching positions. HeyTutor leverages robust training and embedded tutor notes into every lesson to empower all tutors to deliver the same high-quality level of service.

Yes. Most of our district partners continue tutoring programs throughout the summer. Many of our districts leverage existing tutors to work alongside teachers delivering summer academic content or by continuing standards aligned lessons.

The assessments in our program are comprehensive in scope as they address all the learning standards included in our designated lesson path. Their primary purpose is to provide a clear and detailed picture of the progress and growth that students are achieving with regard to the specific standards covered within our program.

The HeyTutor assessments serve as a valuable tool for educators and administrators to monitor their students’ learning journey and assess their proficiency in the standards outlined in the program. While the assessments offer insights into students’ progress and areas that may require additional attention, the core lesson path remains consistent. It follows a predefined order, ensuring that all essential standards are addressed in a structured and comprehensive manner.

Assessments we use: Formative assessments are embedded into every lesson as the 5-question Master portion. Diagnostic assessments are taken at the beginning and end of the program, as well as mid-year for year-long programs.

HeyTutor assessments are multiple choice with four answer choices, as students see in state assessments, as well as some true/false questions.

HeyTutor’s assessments encompass a variety of content types to comprehensively evaluate students’ skills. These include Vocabulary Questions, where students define or use words in context from a passage. Sequencing and Ordering tasks assess students’ ability to arrange events, sentences, or paragraphs logically. Identifying the Main Idea and Supporting Details in passages is a common focus in reading assessments. Math assessments require interpreting Graphical Representations, tackling Math Operations, and solving real-world Word Problems, covering a range of mathematical concepts from basic operations to geometry and algebra.

Our curriculum has been thoughtfully designed to prioritize the coverage of essential core standards. Rather than adapting the curriculum based on individual student assessment results, we have taken a different approach. Each lesson within our curriculum is meticulously crafted to cater to diverse learning styles and abilities.

In essence, our aim is to provide a well-rounded educational experience that is accessible and engaging for all students. While our curriculum does not explicitly adapt to prerequisite skills individually, we ensure that each lesson incorporates a variety of instructional strategies to address diverse learning needs. This includes providing thorough explanations, interactive activities, and opportunities for practice and exploration.

Furthermore, our curriculum places a strong emphasis on creating lessons that are inclusive and accessible to students with varying levels of prior knowledge and skill. By offering comprehensive and well-structured lessons, we can empower educators and students to succeed in the learning process.
