Does the UFT provide any tutoring/homework help for students?

The UFT operates the Dial-A-Teacher program, which is a free, after-school homework help/tutoring service for K-12 students in New York City public schools. It is staffed by experienced classroom teachers who can provide help in all subject areas. 

The program is now fully online. For help, you can go to:  https://tutor.dialateacher.org/ or you can call in to the Dial-A-Teacher hotline at (212) 777-3380. The program operates from 4pm-7pm, Mondays through Thursdays, on days when school is in session. Students or their parents are welcome to contact the center. 

Many of the teachers are bilingual, so Dial-A-Teacher is able to assist parents and students in 10 languages, including Armenian, Bengali, Chinese, English, French, Haitian-Creole, Korean, Russian, Spanish and Tagalog.
