Mission Statement

Delivering the power of education through one-to-one tutoring

Description

For nearly 60 years Tutoring Chicago has dedicated its mission to delivering the power of education to children facing economic barriers through one-to-one tutoring and high-quality programming that is not only academic, but developmental and reflective. Our vision is a brighter future for all of Chicago’s children.

Tutoring Chicago's programs take place on Mondays, Tuesdays, and Wednesdays from 6-7:30pm, in-person or virtually. Tutors and students meet one night per week to review homework and work on reading, writing, math, and life skills. In addition to academic support, programs focus on social-emotional skills, mentorship and relationship building all of which build the foundation for a lasting impact.

Chicagoland students need great tutors, mentors and role models like you, now more than ever and no experience or special skills are required. Simply the desire to impact, inspire and empower a student. We invite you to join our 1200+ strong volunteer community making a real difference.
