What is Seeds of Success?
Seeds of Success is an enriching volunteer program dedicated to providing free tutoring services to K-12 students within the community. Our passionate tutors, who are current BYU students, generously take time away from their own studies to offer personalized academic support and mentorship. Through this program, we aim to foster a love for learning and help students overcome educational challenges, enhancing their confidence and academic performance. Our tutors are committed to making a positive impact on the lives of young learners, offering guidance in various subjects and creating a supportive environment for growth. We are excited to bring this valuable service to our community and look forward to helping students achieve their full potential through the Seeds of Success program.

I never expected such an easy volunteering opportunity to end up being so rewarding. Now that I’ve started tutoring with Seeds of Success, I never want to stop!
We have felt so wonderfully blessed to have this program!! Our son, Daniel has been assisted in Physics and pre-calculus this year in his Senior year of High School. Jordan has been amazing to help him, as have others who have stepped up and helped him on the spur of the moment (even though that isn't the program!). We just moved here to Provo from Oregon where Daniel was raised, and we moved right before his senior year, so the change was quite drastic for him. Your tutoring has been a way for him to feel more in charge of his life as he is doing so much better in these courses.
