Personally, we were matched with two amazing tutors (Orton Gillingham certified), two good tutors, and two okay tutors. The two amazing tutors are better than those who I found through expensive private tutoring services.

If you haven't tried it, you may want to fill out a request form now, in case MCPS decides to cotinue the service beyond June 16th, 2023.

I’ve heard they are switching to in person in school tutoring but not sure how it will work. And it’s only for mcps selected students so any child who can benefit will not get it if their grades are ok.

I support this. MCPS needs to be fiscal stewards of the district’s funds. If a child needs MCPS funded tutoring, the district(or a parent) via testing reports, grades, and in class performance should be able to show why. It is not on the district to pay for extracurricular tutoring just because people like to have it or want to advance further.

+1. It's clear that's how a lot of parents were using it.

Maybe if MCPS did a better job with their curriculum and teaching, those of us using the service wouldn't need it. And, not all kids have access to basics like music/arts in school so it is reasonable to use it. Remember equity?

Agree. If parents want this, they can pay for it.

Sure but core subjects like math & english should be supported by MCPS. Our tutor at Tutor Me Education made the largest impact than any other intervention our school held.
