Tutor/Mentor Connection

The Tutor/Mentor Connection (T/MC) is now a program of the Tutor/Mentor Institute, LLC. We continue to depend on the volunteer actions of many individuals and organization to organize the May and November Conferences each year. All of our speakers are volunteers who donate their time. Many come from other cities and pay for their own travel and lod... ging expenses. Without this help, we could not keep the fees for the conference so low or offer as many scholarships as we do. In this way, all of our speakers are partners in this effort. We thank you all. We seek volunteers and partners from business, faith groups, colleges and area Tutor/Mentor Programs who view the T/MC conference as part of their own commitment to make more effective volunteer-based tutoring and/or mentoring programs available to economically disadvantaged kids living in neighborhoods with high violence, high poverty, and many poorly performing schools. Partners can come from businesses, universities, local tutor/mentor programs, schools, foundations, and any sector of society. They can even come from beyond Chicago. They even come from other countries.Read More
