TEACH (Tech Enriching Atlanta Community Highschools) is a tutorial committee under Georgia Tech's larger volunteering organization called MOVE (Mobilizing Opportunities for Volunteering Experience). We are continuing to tutor at Grady High School this semester. Spring is an especially important time since Grady students will be taking the EOCT and the GHSGT very soon. Grady would love to get all the help that they can receive! This is a wonderful chance for Tech students to make a difference in the Atlanta community, especially for the youth who are struggling in school. If you would like to join, please read the e-mail in its entirety and send the appropriate information:
Co-chairs:
Christine Kim & Gazi Rashid
Subjects:
-You may tutor math, science, or both.
-If you need more information on what is specifically taught in each subject, please refer to the GA Department of Education website: www.doe.k12.ga.us. On the left, click on the links for the GHSGT and End Of Course Test. These provide past test questions and helpful guidelines for the basics on each subject. Also, during tutor sessions, the students should have their textbooks with them.
Times:
-Morning(math only): based on the bell schedule and may be subject to change because Grady follows a block schedule.
-Afternoon (math & science): 3:30pm-4:30pm from Monday to Thursday. Some students may stay longer.
-Saturday (science only): 9am-12pm
**You have the option to tutor more than one day, depending on the availability of transportation.
Requirements:
-Must tutor for at least an hour.
-Must sign in and out for each day they tutor.
Transportation:
For those who do not have a ride, transportation will be provided based on carpooling. Gazi and I will group tutors with those who have cars based on the time and number of seats. I can also provide rides on some days depending on the time.
Zipcars are also available. To have access to a Zipcar, the driver must register on the company's website. There's a $25 charge for each driver. The cost will be split amongst the people riding in the car. But don't worry! You will be reimbursed by us.
