homework support program
Homework Support offers Six Nations youth in grades 5-12 homework assistance in all subject areas in a relaxed, supportive learning environment.
In previous years, the grade levels were set at 6-12 but through contact with parents and teachers we are finding that grade 5 students could benefit from homework support also. Students have access to the internet/computers to complete assignments and projects. Students are required to bring their homework, books and any materials that will assist the tutors in supporting their needs. The location is a quiet place to work and study. We offer tutor support especially for Math and Science (Chemistry, Biology, Calculus and Physics) courses in secondary school so that these students have a dedicated tutor who works with and knows the curriculum expectations.
Our goal is to support students in all areas of their academic achievements through continued homework support. Our tutors work at the various elementary and secondary schools with our students and have an expertise in their subject area of support.
Through individual and/or group tutoring, students will receive assistance with all aspects of homework assignments and projects. Use of computer programs for Math, Science and Literacy will provide additional support for students who are at risk and for those students who need a quiet, supportive environment where they can complete assignments.
