Student Mentoring And Real Tutoring (SMART)

• Emily Chou, Ethan Lee, Anya Pathania

• Our Mission Statement/Vision

• “The S.M.A.R.T. Program aims to provide an educational opportunity for everyone, no matter the situation. By offering a free mentoring and tutoring service, our program can open up a portal to better places for those who are not as fortunate with opportunity. Dedicated volunteers not only help tutor children, but also double as role models. Education, guiding & motivating our children is the key to our nation’s future.”

SMART Tutoring Overview

• Founded in the 2013-14 school year by WHS/Colina parents and students.

• Math tutoring is held twice a week on the Colina campus for 1 hour per session for the entire school year.

• Tutoring is free for Colina students, as high school tutors are volunteers.

• SMART Tutoring is supported by Colina teachers, administrators and counselors who recruit students and provide supervision during the tutoring sessions.

SMART Tutoring Mentor Focus

• Recruiting and training qualified high school tutors

• Overseeing and supervising students and tutors during all sessions

• Meeting quarterly with the Colina SMART Team in order to:

• collaborate with math teachers regarding curriculum and student

progress

• evaluate and adjust tutor group assignments to best support

students

• annually review program and make needed changes

S.M.A.R.T Service

• Over the past 4 years, we have served over 200 of Colina Middle School’s 8th grade students primarily enrolled in Algebra 1CP and Math 8CP.

• Through the S.M.A.R.T. program, many of our students showed improvement of grades, study skills, and consistent homework completion.

• Through the program, a number of students became eligible to culminate to a comprehensive high school without attending Summer School.

• Each student’s progress is reviewed quarterly by SMART tutors and math teachers to ensure they are receiving the best possible support.
