“Thank you!” from last year’s teachers and school staff!
We love our volunteers! During the 2019/20 school year, over 1,300 Charlotte community members tutored across Heart Tutoring’s 23 school partners, helping students build the strong foundation in math and enthusiasm for academics needed for long-term success.

- “My experience with Heart Math Tutoring has been fabulous. The students are eager to go. They love to share what they have learned when they come back to class. They build strong relationships with their tutors.” – 4th grade teacher at Huntingtowne Farms Elementary (2019/20)
- “The program and volunteers are fantastic. The one-on-one intensive math work is so helpful to our students!” – 2nd grade teacher at Greenway Park Elementary (2019/20)
