Repeat Announcement: Peer Tutors for MS Students
The Peer Tutor Club is a high school service group that offers quality tutoring for Middle School students. Students are matched with a High Schooler who is qualified in the area in which the Middle Schooler would like some assistance. Our tutors are qualified, trained, and reliable. A big advantage in utilizing this resource is that the tutors have previously sat in the exact same class that your student can use a bit of help in.
There is no charge for this service as the High School students work as tutors as a community service. Usually sessions are once a week for 45 minutes. If you are interested in having your student take advantage of this opportunity, request a permission form from Mr. Callahan at kevinc@isb.ac.th or email him with any questions you have about tutoring.
