🎉 It’s National Tutoring Appreciation Week! 🎉 At Step Up Tutoring, we’re proud to contribute to a movement that is making a tangible impact in students’ lives. In recognition of this week, our CEO, Samantha Brown Olivieri, alongside Patrick Steck (Vice President of External Affairs at Deans for Impact (DFI)) and Katie Tennessen Hooten (Founder and Senior Vice President of the Teach For America Ignite Fellowship at Teach For America), co-wrote an op-ed on how the education community is coming together to support students and elevate educators through tutoring. Read the piece here: https://lnkd.in/db4VtKiZ #NationalTutoringWeek
🚨 This National Tutoring Appreciation Week, let's celebrate the vital role tutoring plays in supporting the unique learning needs of all students! One impactful way to do this is by strengthening the tutor-to-teacher pipeline through programs like our Ignite Fellowship, Step Up Tutoring and Deans for Impact (DFI)’s Aspiring Teachers as Tutors Network. 📚✨ High-impact tutoring not only boosts student success but also provides aspiring educators with invaluable real-world experience. By investing in tutoring, we can create pathways to the profession while supporting veteran educators. Join us in building a brighter future for students and teachers alike! Read more about how we can sustain this momentum and create lasting change for education! ⬇️ #IgniteFellowship #TeachForAmerica #NationalTutoringAppreciationWeek
