Win College Scholarships

Tutoring available, k - grade 12!
Tutor Connect staff work with students in one-on-one
or small group settings to focus and meet the unique
needs of each child. Tutoring sessions aim to give
students an extra academic boost whether they need
to catch up, or speed ahead!

As the cost of a four-year college often exceeds $100K,
scholarships are more important than ever. Yet few parents and
students know where to start. You don’t have to be an academic
superstar to win free college money. This popular course is taught
by Jason Lum, a recent Harvard and UC Berkeley graduate who
won nearly $250K in scholarship money and has worked in the
Harvard admissions office. Learn where to find unadvertised
scholarship opportunities, how to complete scholarship forms, and
what works and what doesn’t work in competing for scholarship
money. Class fee: $35 one; $45 two.
