TutorScope疫情期间为孩子提供免费在线辅导服务
TutorScope疫情期间为孩子提供免费在线辅导服务

Charvi Goyal is a high school student from Dallas, who helps out other classmates by tutoring them between classes. A tutor is someone who teaches one person or a very small group of students.
When Goyal’s high school moved online last spring because of the coronavirus, she decided to also take her teaching online. The 17-year-old junior and three of her fellow students created TutorScope, a program that offers free tutoring services to other children, including younger ones.
TutorScope started with a small number of tutors who helped young people in their city. But it has grown into a group of 22 tutors from Texas, Arizona, and Ohio. They have helped more than 300 students, some from as far away as South Korea.
Goyal said she expected that schools would go online. She also believed online classes would face some problems. For example, she felt that communication between students and between students and teachers would be weakened.
TutorScope aims to give the one-on-one help that teachers have traditionally given while walking around their classrooms. But now, many teachers cannot provide that one-on-one support because they have no time.
Sarah Newman said her children, 7-year-old twins, have had helpful TutorScope experiences. The service has freed up her and her 17-year-old son to pay attention to their work. “With these tutors, I realize they have time,” she said. “I think they are very patient with these younger kids, which I do not even have as a mother. I have patience in other things, but I don’t have patience for teaching.” 
What makes the TutorScope effort special is that the connection between the teenage volunteers and the other students they are helping.
