Helping build confident learners through high-impact tutoring
About us
The Illinois Tutoring Initiative (ITI) stems from work of the Illinois P-20 Council in spring 2021 to identify evidence-based strategies for learning renewal and supports for students, educators, and the broader community as part of pandemic recovery. The resulting P-20 Council Learning Renewal Resource Guide (March 2021) highlighted 12 priority areas for learning renewal, including a focus on providing extended learning experiences through high-impact tutoring. Subsequently, high-impact tutoring was identified as one of four pillar initiatives for state-wide implementation. In addition, the Illinois higher education strategic plan, “A Thriving Illinois,” calls for closing equity gaps in education through Equity Strategy 1: Support the ongoing learning renewal of students and implementation of evidence-informed student support practices. The Illinois Tutoring Initiative is a partnership between higher education and K-12 priority school districts to support student learning in reading and math in grades 3-8, along with tutoring in high school math. This project is a collaboration between Illinois State Board of Education and Illinois Board of Higher Education funded by federal COVID-19 relief funds. Additionally, the Illinois Community College Board and Office of the Governor are on the statewide planning team to support this project in its design and implementation.

🌟 There were 10 top key takeaways from the recent #NSSA2024 Conference. As we approach the end of funding from the federal government, many questions remain...what will happen to high-impact tutoring? The ITI has paved the way for helping students become more grade-level proficient in math and reading. We have made high-impact tutoring available for all students, especially those who might not otherwise have access without these supports in place. We are doing great work and it shows through student data! 🌟 https://bit.ly/4bDKJ04 #tutoring #highimpacttutoring #mathtutoring #tutorfunding #tutorimpact #educationispower

Recovery is far from complete. To fully recover from pandemic learning loss, districts will need to continue to make concerted investments in student learning. And that is what we are helping with! The ITI is gearing up for summer tutoring now! "To fully recover from pandemic learning loss, districts will need to continue to make concerted investments in student learning." "In addition to the high dosage tutoring, research suggests that summer programs can be effective. For instance, the National Summer Learning Project found that 3 hours of academic programming during a 5-week summer program resulted in a 0.08 standard deviation gain in math achievement—about 0.25 grade equivalents, using our metrics (Augustine et al., 2016)." #PandemicLearningLoss #StudentSuccess #EducationRecovery #educationmatters #educationforall #educationispower #academicsuccess #math #literacy #ileducation #HighImpactTutoring #Tutoring

The ITI believes in the power of high-impact tutoring. We have been collecting data for the past couple years to prove how effective HIT is. We encourage those wondering what HIT is, please contact the ITI and we would be happy to share our story with you! #HighImpactTutoring
I could not agree more with Christina Grant - tutoring is a game-changer, even if it’s not a silver bullet (because there’s no such thing). Listening to providers talk through challenges of implementing with fidelity and to researchers discuss developing novel data sets to understand student engagement, I continue to be so excited about where tutoring can take public education. #NSSA2024
