Free Tutoring for CLMS Students
Greetings Clements Middle School families,
Oxford College of Emory University is excited to offer the online Emory Reads tutoring program for the 2021-2022 school year. We've made some changes to improve the program. This year, we will only offer 1-on-1 tutoring. We want to better pair students with tutors who are skilled in their subject areas.
If your child needs a tutor, please fill out the form below. The link has more information about the program. I'm sending you this link now because you expressed interest or participated last year. The application will open to the general public around September 3rd so please fill it out before then! We assign tutors on a first come-first served basis so the sooner you fill it out, the better the chances!
Here's the link: https://forms.office.com/r/vqeypRQCgZ
Please reach out to me if you have any questions!
