The Terre Haute-based school added more daytime hours in March to the AskRose program as it responds to the pandemic. The site also offers more than 500 resources available through videos and downloadable reference materials.
“We want to help students affected by these challenging times continue learning essential math and science skills,” says AskRose Director Susan Smith Roads.
Even though the tutors, who are students at Rose-Hulman, are themselves doing remote learning due to the coronavirus, the program was able to find enough tutors who can do their teaching remotely.
The homework help is available from noon to 3:00 p.m. (Eastern Standard Time) through a phone call, email or chat session. Services also are available during normal service times: Sunday through Thursday from 7:00 -10:00 p.m.
Connections can be made at 877-ASK-ROSE (877-275-7673) or the AskRose website, AskRose.org. The services are available at no-cost to 6th-12th grade students or parents. AskRose will operate through the month of May.
Rose-Hulman says student privacy is always protected, and students are never asked for their last name or telephone number.
