NJ Summer Tutoring Corps.

Mission

To address COVID-19-related learning loss, The College of New Jersey's School of Education has partnered with the New Jersey Pandemic Relief Fund and the Overdeck Family Foundation to launch the NJ Summer Tutoring Corps. The program will provide tutoring for thousands of K-5 students who have experienced pandemic-related learning loss.

Program Description

Tutors will work with small groups of three students at Boys and Girls Clubs and YMCAs three times a week. Preservice and current teachers will serve as tutors, focusing primarily on math instruction and enrichment. Tutoring will be offered as part of the programs already in place at these locations, for example summer camps.
