Tutoria connects people in need with volunteer tutors via our online platform. Volunteers and clients sign up at https // tutoria.io. They select their interests (English tutoring, US Citizenship, or legal aid) and availability. They then connect with one another via direct message.

Why Tutoria? There is a strong demand from immigrants for education and legal services around the world. There is also a large supply of volunteers offering to teach such classes. The bottleneck is that connecting immigrants and volunteers is done manually by non-profit staff, who do not have the capacity to provide matching/scheduling services. As a volunteer, you will not only create a social impact by helping us meet this need; you will benefit personally by working closely with a passionate group of volunteer professionals, including Tutoria’s leadership.

The Ask One of the goals of the Education Research Team is to utilize pre-tutoring service and post-tutoring service assessments as well as end-of-service satisfaction surveys to measure the effectiveness of the tutoring program and identify areas needing improvement.

Volunteer Survey administrators are paired with up to ten clients and connect with each of them to deliver the pre-tutoring and post-tutoring service assessments as well as end-of-service satisfaction surveys. Once the connection between an administrator and a client is established, the overall goal is to direct clients to

• Complete the pre-tutoring service assessment according to their initial language level and/or status.
• Complete the post-tutoring service assessment at the one-month interval.
• Complete the satisfaction survey at the one-month interval.
• Successfully complete one month of tutoring service in the program.
