Study Buddy Tutoring

Study buddies are currently meeting remotely via Zoom. Tutoring hours are:

Monday: 2:00 – 4:15

Tuesday: 1:15 – 2:00

Wednesday: 2:00 – 3:30

Thursday: 2:00 – 4:15

• Sessions are typically scheduled two times a week for 45 minutes per session.
• Students commit to an entire semester (not a drop-in program).
• Attendance will be logged, and students are expected to come prepared with appropriate materials.
• Illness is the only accepted reason for an excused absence. If a student is consistently absent or late, or arrives ill-prepared, they will be asked to leave the program.
• Most students concentrate on homework in subject areas where they are having difficulty. However, tutors can also help students prepare for the High School Exit Exam.

Tutors are current MVHS students who offer their time and expertise to fellow students at no charge. Tutors must fill out an application and partake in a brief interview and orientation to be considered for the program. Tutors must show academic strength through grades. Tutors earn volunteer hours for their tutoring services.

Students who have a grade of C or lower in any course can sign up to request tutoring. However, availability of tutors may be limited for some courses. In addition, preference will be given to students with lower grades, seniors who do not meet graduation requirements and ELD and SPED students.
