Your Addition Makes a Difference! Volunteer with Heart Math Tutoring!
Our mission at Heart Math Tutoring is to ensure that all elementary students develop the strong foundation in math and enthusiasm for academics needed for long-term success, by helping schools use volunteers as tutors. And, we are looking for volunteers to serve as one-on-one math tutors for the upcoming 2022/23 school year. Approximately 100 elementary students in 2 North Charleston schools will need tutors. As students reclaim learning lost during COVID-19, individual academic attention is more important than ever and tutoring continues to rise to the top of recommended interventions at the national, state, and district level!
Heart Math Tutoring provides a fun way to build relationships with Charleston-area elementary students while delivering academic skills crucial to their success. Volunteers commit 1 hour per week starting in early October. Heart provides an easy-to-follow curriculum with engaging activities and games, and a Program Coordinator is available during sessions to make sure things run smoothly.
To sign up to be a tutor for the 2022/2023 school year, please visit https://heartmathtutoring.org/new-programs/charleston/#volunteer. A member of our team will contact you via email with the next steps.
With gratitude,
The HMT Charleston Team

Mission Statement
Heart Math Tutoring seeks to ensure that all elementary students have the foundational math skills and enthusiasm for academics they need to be successful. We are excited to be launching our newest program site in Charleston, SC! Most students who are struggling in math have not had access to concrete experiences with numbers that support higher levels of learning. These students need one-on-one attention and instruction at their level. We believe that volunteer time is one of the only resources currently available to public schools that is not yet fully leveraged. We know that Charleston's community cares deeply about the success of its children, and when given an effective opportunity to help, volunteers will make a tremendous impact on the academic trajectory of those students who are in most need of support. Join us!
Description
Heart Math Tutoring is a math intervention program that recruits and trains volunteers to work in elementary schools as tutors, delivering a proven curriculum which includes materials in one-on-one sessions during the school day. Teachers and school administrators recommend students for the program who are identified as one or more years below grade level in math. Heart then assesses each students served to determine his/her conceptual gaps and provides instruction at each student’s level in the form of 30 minutes to an hour one-on-one tutoring sessions twice per week.
Heart provides the curriculum and manages the volunteer tutors, allowing volunteers to bring struggling students up to grade level without creating additional work for school staff.
Heart uses a district-approved, Common Core-based curriculum designed specifically for volunteer tutors. It includes hands-on activities, clear goals and learning levels, instruction targeted to meet each student’s specific needs, and pre/post-assessments measuring student growth.
