This is our 6th year assisting students in the North Orange County area. Held every Saturday from 9:30-11am at the Fullerton Elks Lodge, this program is designed to help all students (K-12) improve academically.
We want to help as many children as possible. This year’s goal is to register 25 more students to participate in the program. We need volunteers to support these children with their tutoring needs. We keep it simple to math, reading and language arts assistance.
For more information, contact Jeremy Richmond at jeremyrichmond427@gmail.com or (562) 896-4536.
Entering the half-way point of our 6th year, the North Orange Community Tutoring Program is still assisting students from the Orange County area. Held every Saturday from 9:30-11am at the Fullerton Elks Lodge, the program is designed to help all students (K-12) improve academically.
The initiative originated in 2012 when the founder of Professional Tutors of America (PTA) and long time Elk, Bob Harraka, developed a program that would allow families to receive tutorial services at a centralized location. In collaboration with the Fullerton Elks Lodge, he was able to launch the service in the fall of 2013. The program started with 3 tutors and 5 students. Lesson planning was limited to math, language arts and reading subjects. Today, approximately 15 students participate every week. We have volunteer tutors as well as professional tutors donated by PTA. This has allowed the program subjects to expand dramatically. A few of our high school students are getting assistance with such courses as chemistry, trigonometry and honors English.
We want to help as many children as possible. This year’s goal is to register 25 more students to participate in the program. Getting more volunteer tutors is also on the list. Please pass the word to any families who may benefit from this program. Not only will it help students improve in the classroom, it’s absolutely free for them as well.
