Tutorial Services for DC Youth

Posted by Karl Rudder, 31 March 2007 · 10 views

A vast collection of resources within the DC community are in need of being effectively coordinated and thus be able to provide far more effective tutorial assistance for DC youth. Any fraction of the many graduate and undergraduate students in any school of study at Howard University, The University of the District of Columbia, American University, Catholic University, George Washington University and Georgetown University can join together and help start an educational revolution in respect to improving the quality of education that is being given to DC elementary, junior high and senior high school students.
What is holding DC's universities from working together as one team, working on one tutorial program for DC youth?
There are many churches in every community of the District of Columbia and only a small fraction of the active members of each church can in the near future much better coordinate their time and effort to work with other resources in providing very effective tutorial services to the children within the communities of their location. Can you imagine the power of just 3-5 churches openly working together for the benefit of the children in your community?
There are thousands of proud graduates of the DC Public Schools who are still living and responsibly being employed right here in Washington DC. Rather than only indulging into our class reunions or being involved only in very small programs there's a need to coordinate our vast resource between now and September 2007 to help develop the studying and test taking skills of our little brothers and sisters of the DC Public Schools. How about returning to your alma mata to work as being a team member in such an effort?
To limit the resources of a tutorial program for DC youth will limit the effectiveness of that program.
The challenge to DC residents is to no longer trust that a DC Delegate, Mayor, DC City Council member, member of the DC School Board as well as the hundreds of DC Advisory Neighborhood Commissions will by themselves graduate their ability to communicate and cooperate and begin to work together as one team and far more successfully address the academic needs of the youth of the District of Columbia.
Your mission, should you decide to accept it, will be to help DC residents to better coordinate our resources for the benefit of DC youth during the upcoming school year. The complexity of such an effort will require us all to openly communicate and cooperate together in having ONE ORGANIZED effort. The hundreds of students who will benefit from such an effort will not disavow any knowledge of our actions!
Please contact me at 202-249-8083 should you have an interest in providing tutorial workshops for the parents of DC elementary, junior and senior high school students during this Spring and Summer.
My years of experience and skill as a GED Instructor for teens and adults is available free of charge. My services will only be provided at a DC Public Library or School.
