There are times when homework just does not make sense…..Get a Raider Peer Tutor to make sense of it.
Essex High offers a Raider Peer Tutoring Service for students who need support with homework, developing good problem-solving strategies, organization, understanding of concepts, and offering another point of view to understand their homework.

How will I find out?
- Students requesting a tutor will receive an Edsby message to meet their Peer Tutor at lunch in the Guidance office.
- A Peer Tutor agreement and Student Agreement form will be distributed and signed.
- Tutoring sessions will begin once these forms are returned to the Coordinators.
What Peer Tutors won't do:
- They won't try to cram multiple assignments/ homework into one session. The help that is given in one session is not enough time to go over work that should’ve taken a month or more to learn.
- They won't do the work for you. Learning is a process and doing the homework is an important part of understanding the material. If you don’t work, you won’t learn!
