For South Carolina Public Radio, I'm Dr. Rénard Harris from the College of Charleston. This is Teachable Moments, a minute of education for students and parents.
Tutoring is a great way to help students who are struggling in the classroom, but it’s not always an option for schools with staffing and budget issues. As a result, some schools are exploring virtual tutoring as a less-expensive option.
Research shows the most successful virtual tutoring programs require consistent attendance and have live, well-trained tutors who build strong relationships with their students.
While it’s not a perfect substitute for in-person tutoring, virtual options offer schools another way to provide support to students who need it most.
