TutorND

TutorND connects tutors with the cognitive science of learning. We have three inter-connected aims: (a) expand access to evidence-based literacy and math programs for children in grades PK-8, (b) build a reciprocal interface between research and practice in the learning and cognitive sciences, and (c) provide high-quality learning and practicum experiences for undergraduates, pre-service teaching fellows, graduate students, and postdoctoral associates through education, training, practice opportunities, instructional coaching, and learning design teams.
