That’s Tutoring Chicago. For nearly 60 years we’ve been connecting economically challenged students with volunteer tutors who care.

Our difference is our approach, which pairs individual 1st through 12th grade students with a single adult volunteer for the duration of the school year. Students receive all the benefits of regular, weekly instruction combined with the advantages of a steady, supportive relationship. 

Because as any experienced teacher will tell you, information is only one part of the learning experience. Just as important is a human connection. Trust, confidence, being understood. It all makes a big difference in how much effort a student is willing to put into schoolwork. 

It’s this understanding that makes Tutoring Chicago unique. Strong connections make better students. It’s that simple.
