Youth reading and studying

Program

Tutorship

Academic support that meets each child where they are — and helps them get where they're going.

What It Is

Our Tutorship program provides one-on-one and small-group academic support for youth ages 5–18. We pair students with trained volunteer tutors who provide homework assistance, reading development, math enrichment, and study skills coaching.

Every session is tailored to the child's unique needs and learning style. Whether a student is catching up after falling behind or pushing ahead to reach their full potential, our tutors provide the patience, encouragement, and structure needed to succeed.

Beyond academics, we foster a love for learning — showing youth that education is not a chore but a doorway to opportunity.

What Youth Gain

  • Improved grades and academic confidence
  • Stronger reading and math skills
  • Effective study habits and organizational skills
  • Increased motivation and love for learning
  • One-on-one attention from a caring adult

My daughter used to hate reading. Now she asks to go to the library. That's what EPIC does — it opens doors you didn't even know were there.
