(KLZA)-- Ten Peru State College students are currently serving as tutors for the Nebraska Success Made Accessible Through Rural Tutoring, tutoring program through the Nebraska State College System.
Nebraska SMART is a free virtual tutoring program for students in grades K-12 in Nebraska Educational Service Units 1, 4, and 13. Teacher education candidates from Peru State, Chadron State, and Wayne State remotely tutor students from those ESU's, through an online tutoring platform. The program is administered across the Nebraska State College System and supports students’ homework needs in the areas of English, Math, Science, and Social Studies for all students in grades K-12.
Tutoring is offered from 3:30 to 6:30 p.m. Monday through Friday during the Spring 2024 semester through May 3 and will resume availability in the fall semester.
Tutors at Peru State College are full-time students in the teacher education program who have undergone background checks and specific training in methods courses.
Among the tutors at Peru State College are:
Peru State Liaison, Dr. Gina Bittner (Dawson, NE); Savannah Engelken (Seneca, KS); Rachel Wertenberger (Sabetha, KS); and Sidney Johansen (Powhattan, KS).
