The Tutor Me Program
Information
Due to unforeseen circumstances, the Tutor Me Program is not accepting new Student Enrollment Applications until further notice.
The Tutor Me Program (TMP) is an after school program that provides free 1:1 tutoring and mentoring services to K-12 students that are having difficulties and/or failing one subject. TMP covers the following subjects: Math (both in basic math: K-5th and upper math:6-12th), Science, Social Studies/History, Reading, English Language Arts (ELA). Free services are provided to students whose families annual income meet the Missouri Federal Poverty Guidelines.
For the 2018-2019, the Tutor Me Program will run from Monday, October 1, 2018 to Friday, May 10, 2019. Our goal is to provide your child with tutoring/mentoring services for their academic studies.
In 2014-2015 school year, the Tutor Me Program was implemented in the the University City School District at Barbara C. Jordan Elementary, Jennings School District at the Woodland Elementary School, and the St. Louis Urban Impact Center under Lincoln University. Over the years, the TMP has tutored many students throughout the St. Louis County and St. Louis City school districts.
The Tutor Me Program is dedicated to the success of all parties involved: parents/guardians, school districts, teachers, and tutors/mentors. Here at Smart Kids, Inc., we want to help your child succeed and expand their education upon their high school graduation.
Our tutors are recruited and trained from our partners at Saint Louis University (SLU), University Missouri of St. Louis (UMSL), and Webster University.
