Online tutoring is back

Dakota Dreams Online Tutoring, a K-12 tutoring program administered by the South Dakota Board of Regents, provides homework help for your students. Led by tutors pursuing education degrees at Northern State University and Black Hills State University, these sessions are valuable tools to help students succeed inside and outside the classroom.

Students can take advantage in one of two ways: Tutor Tracks or Online Homework Help. Tutor Tracks, a program for students in grades 1-8, provides guided lesson plans in three areas: reading, grammar, and math. Students using tutor tracks will meet online with their tutor twice per week over a seven-week period.

Online Homework Help provides support on an as-needed basis for students in grades K-12. Sessions can be scheduled ahead of time or accessed on-demand as students need help or have questions on schoolwork. Students should bring assignments, homework, or other questions for a tutor to assist them with math, English, science, or social studies.

Please share this information with your students and their families. Students should sign up by Jan. 16 for Tutor Tracks. This program is free for students in South Dakota.
