Pass the Torch

About Our Program

Pass the Torch is a study team program that helps you earn the highest potential grade in a specific course so you can advance to the next level.

Peer-to-Peer Tutoring

We link students who excel in English, English for Second-Language Learners (ESLL), Math and Chemistry with students who want support in these same core classes.

View Core Classes

You'll be matched into one-on-one study teams consisting of a team leader (tutor) and a team member (tutee). Teams are matched according to availability, meet for the entire quarter and work together in the specific subject in which the member is enrolled.
