public high school. SAGA Fellows will start immediately and serve until the last day of school in
June 2017! SAGA provides 9th and 10th grade students in underserved Chicago high schools
with a personal math tutor. These tutors, called SAGA Fellows, work with a cohort of 14
students every day in groups of 1 tutor: 2 students. SAGA tutoring is unique because it occurs as
a stand-alone class period and is built into the regular school day as an elective course for credit.
Through our daily tutorials, SAGA students have been shown to learn 1-to-2 more years of math
than their peers who are not enrolled in the program. SAGA students outperform their peers on
standardized tests and in non-math courses. This significant achievement would not be possible
without the individualized instruction provided by SAGA Fellows. Fellows' and students' work
together demonstrates that it is possible to make a difference in the academic trajectory of
students in high need urban communities—it is not too late. Must have a Bachelor degree.
