Nebraska SMART is a free virtual tutoring program for students in grades K-12. Teacher education candidates from Chadron State, Peru State, and Wayne State Colleges remotely tutor students in Educational Units 1, 4, and 13 through an online tutoring platform.
Parents who wish to gain access to tutoring must register their child(ren) by visiting www.nscs.edu/NebraskaSMART. Tutoring hours are 3:30-6:30 PM, Monday through Friday.
How it works:
- Parents must first create an account and register their child(ren). Once parents have created their account and added their child(ren), the student (or parent on their behalf) can schedule a tutoring appointment. Students can also join on-demand tutoring to be connected with the next available Tutor.
- The Parent Guide provides steps for parents to register their child(ren), schedule a session, request on-demand tutoring, and more.
- Students should provide homework for which they wish to receive help or topics that they would like to cover. When connected to a Tutor, students (or parents on their behalf) can share files with their Tutor. It is recommended that students (or parents on their behalf) have saved their homework to their computer prior to connecting to a Tutor.
- The Nebraska SMART tutoring platform can be accessed via a laptop, desktop, or Chromebook.
