High Impact Tutoring

High impact tutoring, also known as high dosage tutoring, is a research-based approach that provides students with consistent, small-group or one-on-one instruction multiple times per week. According to the National Student Support Accelerator, this method significantly boosts academic achievement, especially in math and science. At Calculus Roundtable, we integrate high impact tutoring into our STEM programs by pairing students with trained instructors and STEM majors. These sessions focus on specific learning gaps, reinforce classroom content, and build student confidence. Our structured, data-informed approach ensures each student receives personalized support, helping them make meaningful progress in critical STEM subjects.

Research highlighted at the National Student Support Accelerator underscores that High Impact Tutoring is one of the most effective strategies for accelerating student learning, particularly for historically underserved students. With consistent, relationship-based 1:1 and small-group support, students show measurable academic growth, improved attendance, and stronger connections to school. As noted by Elizabeth Ross, tutoring not only boosts achievement but also strengthens school culture and student well-being.
Why You Need High Impact Tutoring.
  • There’s also extensive research that’s focused on the impact this highly targeted, intensive method of tutoring can have on students’ growth in math.
  • High-impact tutoring has been found to be 20 times more effective than standard tutoring models for math. A 2021 study found high school students can learn two to three times as much math as their peers from a daily dose of tutoring at school.
  • Researchers at the University of Chicago found high-dosage tutoring is successfully reversing pandemic-related learning loss in math.
