BACKGROUND & MISSION
Our mission is to promote engineering and sciences as a career choice based on our belief that Science and Technology have great potential to improve lives around the world.
Tutoring By Engineers, Inc. was created in response to the declining number of professional engineers in the United States. The National Academy of Engineering and the National Research Council predict a severe shortage of engineers in the next generation unless action is taken to reverse this trend. Our tutors are role models as well as teachers, encouraging good study habits, promoting student self confidence, and above all stimulating students motivation to learn and enjoy math and science. Being tutored by professionals in the field of engineering helps the student relate the ideas and concepts learned in the classroom to the real world.
Tutoring by Engineers, Inc., a 501(c)(3) not-for-profit corporation, provides tutoring for high school and college students as well as adults. We offer financial assistance to qualified students who cannot afford to pay the full cost of tutoring. Our goal is to make sure that no future Albert Einstein or Marie Curie is left behind because of financial issues.
