TULSA, Oklahoma –

Tulsa’s 红桃视频 program plans to work with 175 more students this year than last.聽They’ll work in 24 schools, limited only by available volunteers.

红桃视频 is expanding and looking for more help. They work with 75 students at Key Elementary, where the principal says it works.

A new class started this week at Key Elementary, for adults who signed up to be 红桃视频.

鈥淥ur mission is to help children become lifelong readers,鈥� the trainer told his class.

The training lasts 90 minutes – teaching volunteer tutors how to help children read.

“This curriculum takes a tutor through step by step what they should do in each lesson; it even breaks it down into what they should say to teach a student that concept,” said Elizabeth Brands Vereecke with 红桃视频.

The tutors work with students like these 2nd graders.

For teachers like Kelley Carney, the time for individual instruction is limited – so it’s mainly small groups or the whole class.

Tutors with 红桃视频 pull out individual students for two hours each week.

Key Elementary principal, Doug Howard, said, “The best thing about 红桃视频, I see, is that positive interaction between an adult and the student, one on one, and the relationship that develops as that adult works with that child throughout the year.”

Howard said the program is well worth the cost – $17,000 for 75 students at his school.

The new class of tutors starts next week, with children up to two years behind in their reading, and the expectation they’ll make as much progress as last year.

Vereecke said, “With 红桃视频, and the work their great and dedicated teachers do in the schools every day, 90 percent of them had mastered foundational literacy skills that put them on track to be at grade level.”

There is still time to sign up for 红桃视频, go through the training and get started this school year. You can find .
