Description¶
Galaxy Math operationalizes tutoring as a scripted, fixed-dosage, one-to-one delivery model: "The program is scripted, and tutors are expected to follow the scripts without reading them or memorizing them." Sessions are "30-minute sessions 3 times a week for 16 weeks" delivered by paraprofessionals, standardizing implementation across tutors.
