Our Mission

Empower

Equal Education for Athens is a non-profit organization geared towards providing free online tutoring for students in Athens Clarke County. We began as a UGA organization in 2018 and have since then become a community partner organization with the Clarke-County School District. We advocate for equal education and recognize that we must take action against the large educational disparity gap in Athens. As such, our tutors are trained not only to tutor students, but also serve as a mentor that teaches study skills and encourages students to academically strive! So far, we’ve served 80 happy students, and hope to serve even more!

Our Inititaves

We are working to offer Spanish speaking tutors to ESL students.

To ensure quality and safe training, we require all tutors to undergo a background check, complete mandatory reporter training, and attend a training session.

We are working to providing tutoring in additional areas such as music, engineering, college-prep, computer science, and art.

We are working to expand access to WIFI, webcams, and laptops to offer tutoring to more students.
