For over 20 years, adults and teenagers from Tifereth Israel have tutored students from our local public elementary school, Shepherd Elementary. Each tutor is paired with a young student (grade K-6), with oversight by the program coordinators. Tutoring takes place for an hour on Sunday evenings at Tifereth Israel, and includes reading, practicing math skills, and help with homework. This weekly hour can make a tremendous difference in the academic performance of participating students by reinforcing skills learned in school. Students in grades 6-12 as well as adults can volunteer to be tutors.
