Assistance is also available in spelling, writing, math, science and memory development. Students receive individual tutoring with corrective feedback toward mastery learning. However, others may apply. Clients typically have deficits in one or more skill areas ranging from one to several years below grade level. Most Project Help tutors are psychology majors or minors enrolled in a educational psychology practicum.
Tutors receive extensive instruction and training in tutoring before being assigned a client.
Tutors are monitored by Project Help supervisors and provided feedback on a regular basis. A final written report describing the client's progress from beginning to end is provided along with recommendation for future activity. Teachers, counselors, and other school personnel, parents, or community agencies may refer. Interested persons should contact the office at the number on the front of the brochure. When the program is full, clients may be placed on a waiting list, if desired.
