“Bay Area Tutoring Association is an outstanding professional organization dedicated to helping students achieve their academic goals. They are great at communicating the program outline and expectations to parents and following up with Eden Staff if any challenges arise. Our students have reported they “understood the material in their tutoring sessions,” “enjoyed their tutoring sessions,” and “looked forward to their tutoring sessions.” We encourage other nonprofits to partner as well.”

“Bay Area Tutoring Association has been a B.E.S.T. (Bringing Everyone’s Strength Together) grant recipient and high performing partner with the San Jose Youth Empowerment Alliance (formerly known as the Mayors Gang Prevention Task Force) since 2016.

“From the very start, BATA leadership took the time to listen to our specific needs and explored how to best support our college immersion high school program. They provided us with tutors who are professional and experts in their academic areas of focus. Their staff is personable, kind, approachable, communicative, and caring, which are important qualities for working with teenagers. BATA’s partnership, flexibility and willingness to accommodate our schedule changes over the year made a significant impact on student outcomes for some of our most vulnerable populations, and we absolutely look forward to continuing this partnership in the coming year(s).”
