High-impact tutoring offers a transformative solution for Boston’s education challenges, with proven methods that can dramatically improve student learning. Despite being the birthplace of this intervention, Boston Public Schools currently serves only 350 students, missing an opportunity to close pandemic-related learning gaps using a cost-effective, research-backed approach that could benefit all 50,000 students
The Personalized Learning Initiative (PLI) from the University of Chicago reveals how structured, high-dosage tutoring can close learning gaps, especially for underserved students. Partnering with PLI, Saga Education supports evidence-based tutoring models that improve academic outcomes. Key strategies include strategic scheduling, stakeholder buy-in, and tracking attendance—ensuring students benefit from consistent tutoring. Through Saga Consult, schools can scale these impactful programs tailored to their needs.
Schools can leverage AI to enhance education by automating routine tasks, enabling teachers to focus on personalized instruction. AI-powered tutoring tailors learning to individual student needs, improving outcomes. However, successful integration requires clear policies, trained educators, and secure technology. Overcoming teacher skepticism through transparent discussions and showcasing successful use cases is essential. With careful planning, AI presents a valuable opportunity to benefit students and transform education.
