Waverly Tutorial Student Initiative

 

Mission Statement:

Waverly Tutorial Student Initiative is dedicated to helping students in Baltimore overcome the hurdles they meet on the academic path. Tutors give personal attention to their tutee, and work toward addressing the concerns and questions of the students, regardless of age or education level. Tutors also reciprocally benefit from the relationship they create with the tutees, and the work they do together.

We offer free one-on-one and group tutoring for any subject or level at the Waverly branch of the Enoch Pratt Free Library, in the afternoons of Monday through Thursday, and on Saturday morning. Members of the community who are interested in the service are asked to register and set up regular appointments, since available tutors are first allocated to those with appointments before they are opened up to drop-in participants. In this community, the library acts as both a nexus for intellectual gatherings and a haven for children and parents from questionably safe Baltimore streets. As such, it is always bustling with young minds—ones that are not always being engaged productively.
