Tutoring
Unity High School offers several different
opportunities for students to receive academic assistance and/or
tutoring. Students who have difficulty in
class or just
need to confirm their understanding of concepts before a quiz or test
have
places to turn when they are in need of help.
Teachers
The best
place to seek assistance in any class is with the teacher you have for
that subject matter or with another teacher
within that same department.
Teachers
are available for at least 30 minutes before and after school each day.
Teachers
meet with many students during this time so if you are in need of more
one-on-one
assistance, make an appointment. Another
method or option is to email your teacher. While
this might not be the best way to receive
immediate answers, email
might be an option for less urgent questions or homework clarification. A list of teachers and their emails can
be found here: Faculty.
Help from other
sources
Volunteer Illini – This resource is only
available through your counselor. Only very focused students who are very
serious about receiving help and will spend extra
time attempting to improve their work will be considered by this group. All students are screened through an
application process. Please be aware
that you may need to provide your
own transportation to a common tutoring site and that if you cancel
your
tutoring time even once, you could be dropped from the program.
National Honors Society
Seniors
in the National Honor Society provide a peer tutoring program through
the
counseling office. Students who are
interested in receiving tutoring need to complete a tutoring request in
the
counseling office or see their counselor. Students
requesting
tutoring will be assigned a tutor based upon their need, the
availability of
tutors and the times available to be tutored.
