The program has been great for our son, expanding and keeping him interested as the school math program runs a bit slow for him. This is the most engaged we see him with school work, and he enjoys his sessions so much.

Parent of 5th grader: “The spark we see with you with the one on one with Room 17 is not one we see often in the classroom setting, as that kind of individualized attention is just not possible all the time when you need to focus on those who may be struggling. He is so engaged every week with you in the program.“

Room 17’s WIN Tutoring aims to not only support our roomies who may be feeling less confident or are struggling in math, but also to sustain and extend learning. Many of our “roomies” come to Room 17 because they LOVE math and want the extra challenge and/or math experiences outside of the classroom.  Room 17 also offers Afterschool Programs, details can be found here. Feel free to share with your child’s PTA/PTO and perhaps Room 17 can provide this service to your school!

We do! We ask that you give us advanced notice (as best as you can), so that we can find the right tutor to meet the specific needs of your child. We have a variety of tutors (certified teachers as well as peer tutors) who specialize in particular courses. We do our best to find the most confident tutor for these specific needs.

Room 17 welcomes volunteers! Highschool students have several options to choose from, if they are working towards earning volunteer credit hours. Community members are always welcome to volunteer as well! Click here for our Volunteer Application which has more details.

For certified teachers or those who are on a path to certification, the first step is to complete this Teacher Application. For highschool and college students interested in tutoring, please complete this application. Once applications are reviewed and references have been checked, you will receive an email, call, or text to set up a meeting with a Room 17 director.

At Room 17 we focus on getting to know each child, their unique needs, strengths and areas to develop. We don’t use prescribed programs, worksheets, or timed tests.Through talking with each child and giving them an opportunity to reflect and share what they know and want to gain more confidence in, our teachers can choose from a variety of researched based activities in order to create learning experiences that connect math to our everyday lives. The team at Room 17 focuses on developing mathematicians that think flexibly, enjoy math and see how it is more than “school math”…it’s everywhere! The team at Room 17 aims to spread the joy of math through engaging experiences and as a result, build confidence and eliminate math phobia!
