As we saw students transitioning back to in-person learning, we understood that certain time slots for virtual tutoring may not have been as convenient for students as they were during the virtual learning era.
Subsequently, as a means to continuously support our vision for free virtual tutoring and instruction to all students, we replaced the [3:45 pm to 4:45 pm EST] time slot with a new [5:45 pm to 6:45 pm EST] time slot.
In addition, we have also added a new [9:00 am to 10:00 am EST] time slot on Saturdays and Sundays. Collectively, these new session timings have been established in order to add greater flexibility for in-person students.
More information about our new session timings can be found on the Personalized Tutoring Services page:
In 2022, the senior VOT leadership decided to initiate development of the VOT mobile app. This mobile app would help enhance student accessibility to the free virtual services provided by our organization. Furthermore, this mobile application would also increase our outreach globally to help fulfill our mission of effectively supporting as many students as possible in attaining greater success for their academic endeavors and career goals.
At the moment, our app is still in the process of development, but a preliminary version of our app will be available for public use in late 2024. Nonetheless, further updates about our app development will be provided on this page about EleVOT.
In order to ensure 24/7 support for all of our students, we have decided to integrate a set of tutors who will serve as a more permanent base for academic aid and instruction.
Nonetheless, it should be mentioned that high school students will still be able to serve as tutors for our virtual tutoring organization, but as a means to provide continuous assistance, we will be adding a permanent set of virtual tutors who can aid our students and propagate them towards greater success for their academic endeavors and career goals.
Additionally, as a means to sustain the free services that we provide to the community, we will be incorporating different monetary elements, such as merchandise for purchase and donations, into our organization.
More specifically, in order to alleviate the increasing costs of maintaining this free platform for virtual learning, we will be offering merchandise for purchase on a separate page on our website as well as adding a donation system.
The donation system will also aid us in our mission of providing free virtual education to underprivileged students who struggle in their academics and cannot acquire effective tutoring services due to their unfortunate financial situations. Thus, incorporating a donation system will enable potential donors to help us achieve our goals with regards to providing free education to students from all backgrounds and sustaining a highly accessible virtual platform.
Phase III changes for VOT will be implemented soon, and further updates about our Phase III systematic restructuring will be provided on this page about EleVOT.
