CAPSA Tutoring Program

The CAPSA provides quality and personalized one-on-one tutoring service to K-12 students during the MCPS academic school year. Offered in person, these tutoring sessions are held once per week and cover various subject areas to address the educational and personal needs of the students. Our tutors and program leaders are trained student volunteers who are eager to help other students and give back to the community.
  • Tutoring session location: In person at the Chinese Bible Church of Maryland (18757 N Frederick Ave, Gaithersburg, MD 20879)
  • Tutoring session dates/times: 10 AM to 12 PM on Saturdays (see calendar here )
  • Tutoring session cost: All tutoring sessions are free of charge. Yet each tutee is asked to contribute a $40 administrative fee to help cover CAPSA's operational expenses. The fee will be collected at the first tutoring session.
