Question 1

What is Online Study Circle?

Online Study Circle is a student-led organization with the two primary goals of (1) helping students to understand their curriculum and (2) allowing students to earn volunteer hours through teaching a subject they have experience in.

Is the tutoring free?

Yes! All tutoring is done by older students across the district completely free of charge; they instead earn volunteer hours for their efforts.

Question 6

What time are tutoring sessions?

Accepted Answer

During the school year, we hold sessions over Zoom every weekday from 4:00pm-9:00pm and all-day over the weekends. Summer sessions are open to any time during the week. (Note: specific times are discussed between tutor and tutees independently!)

Question 7

How does an average tutoring session look like?

Accepted Answer

Study Circle holds online sessions through Zoom: paired tutors and tutees discuss a weekly/biweekly time to have lessons on Zoom, and we keep a schedule of all our sessions throughout the week. That way, the tutor has their own independence in how they would like to pace their lessons, we only provide the space. Tutors and tutees are always free to organize their own in person meetings either at a school or place of choice!
