Varsity Tutors for Schools Solutions for the Public Sector
High-Dosage Tutoring: 3 Powerful & Flexible Models for Districts and Schools
We offer the flexibility to choose the implementation strategy that meets your district‘s unique needs.
Varsity Tutors for Schools pairs students with highly qualified tutors who have a deep understanding of the subject in question and extensive experience in working with both struggling students and students who are working to get ahead. Tutors leverage age-appropriate learning strategies, including interactive activities and the use of technology-driven resources to facilitate personalized learning experiences that support each student’s distinct developmental and learning needs. In addition to live, video-based 1-on-1 and small- group tutoring via high- dosage tutoring models, students have access to supplemental learning opportunities, including 24/7 On-Demand Chat Tutoring, that can extend learning outside of the school day.
- District Assigned™: District Assigned™ Tutoring offers a suite of features that enables administrators to manage district-wide high-dosage tutoring programs centrally, delivering 1-on-1 and small-group tutoring to students that need targeted intervention to bridge learning gaps on a recurring basis (typically 2-3x per week). Through District Assigned™ Tutoring, district administrators can partner with district staff to identify the students in need of tutoring support, define academic focus areas for student learning, and ensure tutoring is aligned to the district’s learning goals and outcomes.
- Teacher Assigned™: When students start to fall behind in class, Teacher Assigned™ Tutoring empowers the educators who know them best to schedule high-dosage tutoring from subject-subject matter expert tutors on a recurring basis (typically 2-3x per week). Educators can tailor interventions to meet individual student needs by communicating with tutors, defining tutoring goals, sharing classroom materials, and reviewing recordings. Through this offering, teachers get an extra set of hands for each student, allowing the student to receive face-to-face personalized instruction from high-quality tutors consistently over time when they need it most.
- Parent Assigned™: Parent Assigned™ Tutoring empowers parents to be advocates for their children’s learning. District leaders identify students who are eligible for tutoring and ensure that the program meets each of those students’ specific academic needs by setting the frequency of tutoring sessions and defining the subject areas in which additional instruction and support are needed. Once eligible students are identified, the parents of those students work directly with Varsity Tutors for Schools to schedule and manage recurring high-dosage tutoring sessions outside of the school day based upon the frequency determined or recommended by the district, typically 1-3 sessions per week, making it easy for students to get the personalized support they need on the days and times that work best for them.
