Interested in making a difference through tutoring?
Start a TutorChat Club at your high school!
WHAT IS IT?
A TutorChat club is an organization that offers BOTH training and opportunity for high school students to tutor and mentor their peers while earning community service hours.
​
The club will be running applications for volunteer tutors and those who get accepted as tutors/members will gain access to professional training and ongoing support in:
​
-
Mentoring younger students
-
Helping their students develop strong life skills
-
Tutoring their students to get better grades

What Else Do Club Members Get?
Aside from getting professional training, those who qualify as tutors (now considered official members) will be personally matched to students so they can start tutoring online!
​
They'll also be invited to join peer accountability groups where they can uplevel their skillset and hone their leadership skills in a practical setting.

TutorChat's Mission
To EMPOWER high school students to transform K-12 education.
​
TutorChat gets involved by training and matching teen tutors with students who struggle academically.
Not only will tutors help their students raise their grades, but they'll also help them build solid confidence and real-life skills.
​
Our goal is to reach 1 million struggling students in the next 3 years and give them access to tutoring and coaching that has formerly been only available to high-income families.

Why Start a High School Chapter?
Our TutorChat clubs program allows ambitious, impact-driven leaders to:
​
-
Gain a meaningful experience that earns them community service hours AND sets them apart on their college applications.
​ -
Make a real difference in their community by making mentoring + tutoring available to families who otherwise could not afford it
-
Help their peers learn then apply real-world skills
-
Connect with a nation-wide group of highschool students who are transforming education
