The S.T.A.R.S, Special Teachers for At-Risk Students, program is an academic enhancement program that recruits and trains qualified tutors to provide tutoring and hands-on teaching to at-risk students. We target African American and other at- risk students to achieve academic success. We focus on math, science and reading, and have a unique curriculum and teaching style to increase reading and math grade levels.

Tutors in the S.T.A.R.S program earn between $18 to $40 per hour. Individualized instruction is provided by experienced university students, graduates, and credentialed teachers who are experts in their subject fields. We also rely on volunteer tutors to help educate our students as well.
Our approach to supporting students is for long-term success and at S.T.A.R.S, we understand that this is done by fostering relationships. One-and-done or single problem-focused sessions are ineffective and as such, we match students and tutors to stay together until the student is ready to move on to the next subject. Our sessions with students focus on subject knowledge, critical thinking and learning skills to ensure their long-term success. Our platform helps parents support their kids’ success by providing them with the necessary information.
