Tutors Impacting Public Schools (TIPS) is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization based in Seattle, WA. Founded by Professor Greg Fritzberg at Seattle Pacific University, TIPS aims to positively impact public schools by providing real-time tutor support. Their philosophy centers around placing representative and culturally responsive tutors in classrooms, allowing schools to tailor the role of each tutor to meet the specific needs of their students. TIPS is committed to diversity, equity, and inclusion, offering equitable pay, ongoing training opportunities, and hiring talent that reflects the diversity of the classrooms they serve.
Through personalized and small group tutoring, TIPS increases student engagement and participation, leading to academic, social, and emotional growth. Their tutors form meaningful relationships with students, providing individualized support and creating inclusive learning environments. TIPS also partners with community organizations and recruits undergraduate and graduate students from universities and colleges across the Pacific Northwest, as well as non-student community members, to make a difference in education.
