NYC DOE Mitigates C19 Learning Loss with Personalized, Virtual Tutoring

In response to school closures in Spring 2020, the NYC-DOE Office of Non-Public Schools sought a partner to extend online learning opportunities through the summer months and mitigate C-19 learning loss among students.

In particular, twelve Islamic School sites were growing concerned with a widening opportunity gap and seeking alternative ways to boost Math and English proficiency with priority and at-risk student groups. To support this work, the President of the Islamic Schools, Rafeek Mohamed, turned to FEV Tutor to adopt a research-based and collaborative approach to 1-1 tutoring.
