DETAILS
Second Chance was created to help combat learning loss during the summer months for both high school and elementary aged students who either have exam retakes or who have subjects that they need extra help with. Participants are paired with tutors for one-on-one sessions once or twice a week for the four weeks of July.
The program’s goal is to contribute to school perseverance and to boost our participants confidence in a comfortable and enjoyable environment.
All tutoring sessions are offered free of charge and we make sure to offer snacks to help with concentration levels. For the younger students, working in 20-minute blocks was successful, these included intensive 1-on-1 sessions broken up with numeracy and literacy games.
DURATION
up to 2 sessions a week during the month of July
