Project: Universal Minds
Project: Universal Minds is a program that brings students at the University of Toronto closer to their community.
It’s a volunteer-based tutoring program for struggling high school students in schools near our campus. You’ll meet one-on-one with a student either in person at a local school or using an online meeting platform (like Zoom). This program is different from other programs in that it’s a free tutoring service for high school students.
As university students our tutors serve as much as mentors as they do teachers as they are showing high school students the opportunities available to them in post-secondary education.
Project: Universal Minds currently offers tutoring in Math, Science and English, tutors are free to select a particular tutoring discipline, but are not limited to sticking to one subject when tutoring.
