High Impact Math Tutor

High Impact Tutoring (HIT) is a critical strategy in our efforts to raise the mathematical achievement of all students. Our intervention tutors have the most important role in HIT, working directly with small groups of students to build up their foundational skills so that they are better positioned to access grade-level instruction in class.

• Collect, score, and record student assessment data on a daily basis
• Record student attendance on a daily basis
• Communicate issues with teachers and coach

Hours: up to 20 hrs/wk, each weekday except Wednesdays
