Coney Island Prep has teamed up with Ignite! Reading to give in-school tutoring to students learning to read. It’s a way for students to make up for some of the lost time we had during the pandemic. The program requires just 15 minutes a day.
Ignite! is a nonprofit that pairs elementary students with a trained tutor who provides 15 minutes of one-on-one, individualized reading and literacy tutoring via Zoom. Jessica Sliwerski, Founder of Ignite! Reading: We can harness the power of virtual, and we can use a tool like Zoom to ensure that students each get the instruction that they need in order to become proficient readers. So they transition out of their classrooms into this designated space for Ignite! Reading, they log into Zoom, and they have a highly trained tutor who works with them one-on-one every day. And they build this really powerful relationship around learning to read.
