  • Tutoring programs are those organizations that offer one-on-one and/or small group tutoring directly to students, either in-person, virtually, or through both modes of delivery. 
  • Technology platforms are technology platforms that facilitate tutoring programs.
  • Interventions offer materials (e.g., an instructional scope and sequence, placement assessment, progress monitoring tools) that are used by a tutoring program, but do not offer tutoring directly.  

This database is intended for Districts, States or nonprofits to identify potential tutoring partners, for potential tutors to identify potential employers and for tutoring organizations to have a clearer understanding of the landscape and to identify interventions that might be useful to their programs, if needed.

Please note that some of these programs are also listed on ProvenTutoring.org where you can find additional information on relevant research studies and costs.

  2. Student-Centered and Safe: All tutorial models are built on a foundation of relational capacity so that students feel supported while seeking solutions.
  3. Inquiry-Based: Tutors and peers ask higher-order questions instead of offering answers.
  4. Collaborative: Peers use their collective agency to resolve points of confusion and support each other.
  5. Equitable: Defined roles and responsibilities ensure equal participation.
  6. Metacognitive: Students identify where they are confused, and then summarize their new learning and reflect on the process.

  • Individual support – School teaching staff (SEMH), ReadingWise and EE Operational lead.
  • Raise attainment alongside supporting their emotional needs (SEMH).

As part of the TILP project, teaching staff were carefully chosen to carry out 1-1 tuition (25hrs), where they already had a good relationship with the young person.
