The Work and Why It Matters
Nationwide, students are experiencing a significant interruption in
their formal education due to COVID-19 and resulting school
closures. While educators and students alike have many
unprecedented challenges to overcome this upcoming school year,
educators report that their top concern is students falling behind
in math. This concern is heightened for educators in high poverty
districts who teach predominantly black or Latinx students.
Now more than ever we need talented, caring, and capable people
committed to supporting our students in their academic and social
development. Finding academic interventions that address inequities
that historically underserved students face is one of our nation's
most urgent challenges.
Position Overview
Saga SITE (Social Impact Tutoring Experience) is a math tutoring
opportunity available for the 2021-2022 school year through Saga
Education. Saga offSITE Math Fellows virtually serve one of our
partnered public high schools in New York City while working from
home. Saga's tutoring model is embedded in the regular school day
and fellows manage a small cohort of approximately 36 ninth and
tenth grade students over the course of the school year. During a
typical school day, fellows will work with up to six students at a
time, three of whom will work independently on a blended-learning
platform, and facilitate lessons during six class periods per day.
Fellows will implement Saga's proprietary curriculum via Saga
Connect to foster academic success and help students reach their
goals. Saga Math Fellows promote academic success by focusing
intently to provide individualized instruction and build strong,
meaningful relationships with their students during their year of
