There is no cost, but a donation of $20 is suggested upon registration.
How long will it take to get a tutor?
It may take as long as three months to find a tutor.
Do I have to take a written test to be in the program?
Written tests are not required, but they help us find the right tutor and books to help you learn. Most students take a simple test or assessment.
