National Honor Society is beginning a tutoring program to help students with homework, understanding lessons or simply answering questions.

Tutoring will take place after school every Wednesday in room 203 and will commence after winter break on Jan. 11. The after school assistance will be available all throughout second semester.

To sign up to be tutored one must fill out an application, which can be accessed by scanning the QR codes on flyers hung around the school or by going to room 203. The application will ask a variety of questions in an attempt to match the student up with an appropriate tutor. Once paired with a tutor the students will meet one on one after school.

There are also slots open to become a tutor. Anyone can become a tutor and are able to receive community service hours for their time.

“There are no requirements to be a tutor other that being comfortable in helping another student with the specific subject that they selected,” Math teacher Casey Grandy said.

Whether you are the tutor or the tutee the program gives students the opportunity to meet new peers, gain experience and maybe learn something new in addition to acquiring community service hours. That was the whole idea behind the program.

“[The main part of the program is to] help students with their homework and also for students that need community service hours,” Grandy said.

To be tutored, you must continue to sign up every week and vice versa for tutors.

Though the program was supposed to start this week but was unable to due to technical difficulties it is expected to be a great success all around and be a ‘win win’ situation for both student instructors and their tutees.
