鈥淭hey鈥檒l pick their time, and they鈥檒l pick their school, and they鈥檒l go for 45 minutes a week or more if they have more capacity to tutor,鈥� she said.

45 minutes a week, she said, that, added up after each school year, helps lead to success in both the classroom and life.

鈥淲hen they have that one-on-one experience just with you and you鈥檙e their person who just cares about them and their literacy, they really do blossom,鈥� said Martin.
