Our Tutors

Our AmeriCorps members are selected from a diverse group of individuals from various backgrounds across the United States to serve our students as math tutors; each tutor brings their unique skill set to assist students’ success.

Through this service year opportunity, our tutors develop leadership skills, participate in professional development workshops, engage in public speaking, and much more. This is a positive learning experience not only for our students but for our tutors as well

What You’ll Do

Saga Education’s AmeriCorps math tutors manage a small caseload of high school students and promote academic success by focusing intently on providing high-dosage, high-impact tutoring that includes daily individualized instruction to students during their year of service. During a typical school day, tutors will work in-person with students during multiple class periods and facilitate lessons. Tutors will implement Saga’s proprietary curriculum to foster academic success and help students reach their goals. In addition to offering academic support, our math tutors will serve as advocates and mentors, building strong, meaningful relationships with their students.

  • Maintain regular ongoing communication with parents/guardians via email, text, or phone, based on parent/guardian preference and record efforts 
  • Navigate varying technology, both hardware and software, and troubleshoot technical issues as they arise
  • Develop student incentives, trackers, and support with celebrations, awards and recognition
  • Proactively check and respond to emails and Slack daily, and regularly consult with your Site Director
  • Participate in weekly observation and feedback sessions with your Site Director, as well as weekly reflections and professional development for continuous growth
  • Build strong relationships with students to effectively set expectations and manage behavior
  • Build strong relationships with teachers, other staff and the community
  • Engage and assist with other duties as assigned by your Site Director and school site
