We are asking for $50,000 to provide 1-1 tutoring to 50 low-income students in San Francisco. That would mean each student gets 28 weeks of tutoring, one hour per week, for the entire school year. Data shows (ours and others) that 1-1 tutoring improves grades, test scores, school attendance, confidence, and motivation. Parents and teachers report better interactions with adults, and the best learning takes place when a trusting and respectful relationship has been built. More personalized learning - bringing a "Class of One" to students - is the best investment in education.
