“It’s such a pleasure working with the New Jersey Tutoring Corps Program. All our staff is fantastic. Scholars are always excited about tutoring. I am so proud of everyone. The data speaks for itself.”

“The most rewarding part is seeing my scholars faces light up when they get a problem right and having them grow more confident throughout the learning process. As a teacher for seven years, I have witnessed the unfortunate learning gap (or loss) for many as a byproduct of COVID. This program is so essential in helping bridge that gap and provide quality education, social and emotional learning and peer to peer interaction between kids which is so important at a young age.”
