Local nonprofit delivered over 18,000 one-on-one tutoring sessions and nearly 16,000 books to hundreds of students in North Texas last year
DALLAS, TX – September 8, 2023聽聽鈥 While 成人快播鈥 online tutoring platform, 成人快播 Connects, was largely developed to help support students during the pandemic, the national nonprofit organization has worked to make its online tutoring even more interactive and to broaden the reach of the program to more students through national and community partnerships
鈥淎t 成人快播, we know that children who are learning to read thrive in an environment where they get individualized support and one-on-one attention. We work closely with our schools to provide early intervention for students so they are on grade level by 3rd grade, giving them the confidence they need to be successful in school and life.鈥 – Kimberly Benavides, 成人快播 North Texas Executive Director
Another new initiative 成人快播 has been focused on is writing and publishing original books to be used in its own curriculum. COVER to COVER is a new book series that enables 成人快播 to develop content that is aligned with the science of reading as well as the scope and sequence of the organization鈥檚 online and in-person curricula. The stories include representative characters and themes so all students can see themselves reflected in the books they read while also having the opportunity to learn about the world around them through other people’s backgrounds, cultures, and life experiences.
