Understanding the Family Empowerment Scholarship Program
The Family Empowerment Scholarship is a transformative opportunity for thousands of Florida students, providing financial support for tuition, instructional materials, and services like tutoring. Administered by Step Up For Students and AAA Scholarships, this program includes two main categories: FES for Educational Options and FES for Students with Unique Abilities (formerly Gardiner). Both tracks allow parents to make educational decisions that best suit their child's learning style and goals. At Tutero, we’ve worked extensively with scholarship families to make the most of these funds—helping them use their education savings accounts for high-quality, personalized tutoring that delivers measurable results. Whether you're looking for weekly sessions in reading and math or more focused support in science, writing, or exam prep, we help families navigate eligibility, submit documentation, and book sessions that qualify under the scholarship terms. In short, we take the complexity out of the process and let families focus on what matters most: their child's success.

Who Qualifies and How to Use the Florida Empowerment Scholarship
The Florida Empowerment Scholarship is designed to expand access to quality education for K-12 students across the state. It’s available to a wide range of families, including those from low to moderate income brackets, as well as students with unique learning needs. The scholarship has two main branches: the Family Empowerment Scholarship for Educational Options (FES-EO) and the Family Empowerment Scholarship for Students with Unique Abilities (FES-UA). Eligibility is based on factors like household income, academic performance, or documented special needs. Once approved, families receive an Education Savings Account (ESA) that can be used for tuition, instructional materials, curriculum, and private tutoring services like Tutero. We help parents understand how to use these funds effectively, from submitting receipts to booking sessions that qualify under program guidelines. Whether your child is attending a private school or learning from home, this scholarship offers the flexibility to access personalized academic support that makes a real impact.

I've used Tutero for 4 months so far for my Year 9 son. It's seriously been nothing short of a miracle! My son does his tutoring without complaint and his grades have improved significantly.

Aligning Tutoring with Florida’s Education Standards
Tutero’s tutors are not just subject experts—they’re trained in the nuances of Florida’s academic standards. Whether your child is learning under the B.E.S.T. Standards in English Language Arts and Math or working toward state milestones and assessments, we make sure our sessions align with what’s expected in Florida classrooms. That alignment matters. It ensures students aren’t just getting generic help—they’re building skills that directly translate into classroom performance and testing outcomes. From understanding benchmarks to mastering grade-level expectations, our tutors incorporate state-aligned materials, practice tests, and teaching strategies that reflect what Florida educators are using every day. For Empowerment Scholarship recipients attending private schools or receiving instruction at home, this is especially valuable. It bridges the gap between the broader goals of the scholarship program and the academic reality students face day-to-day. In doing so, we help students stay on track, meet academic goals, and even exceed them.
Subject-Specific Support for Every Grade and Goal
Empowerment Scholarship families come from all walks of life—and so do their tutoring needs. That’s why Tutero offers a wide range of subject-specific support, from foundational reading and arithmetic in the early grades to advanced coursework in algebra, biology, and essay writing for high school students. We also provide targeted test prep for assessments such as FAST, SAT, ACT, and end-of-course exams required for graduation in Florida. Each student receives a custom learning plan tailored to their strengths, weaknesses, and academic goals. Tutors use interactive tools like virtual whiteboards, real-time quizzes, and collaborative exercises to keep sessions engaging and effective. Whether your child needs long-term tutoring to build proficiency or short-term help to catch up, Tutero delivers. Families using the Empowerment Scholarship often use our services to supplement their chosen curriculum, fill in learning gaps, or give their child the extra edge needed to excel in a competitive academic environment.

Sessions are typically one hour, though shorter or longer options can be arranged depending on the student's age, attention span, and goals. Younger students in elementary school often do well with focused 45-minute sessions, while high school students working through complex material may benefit from extended sessions. Your tutor will recommend a format based on what works best for your child.
Yes. After each session, parents receive a detailed report from the tutor covering what was worked on, how the student performed, and what the next session will focus on. These reports give families visibility into their child's progress without needing to sit in on every session. If a parent wants to observe or discuss the learning plan, that can be arranged directly with the tutor.
Yes. Tutero operates year-round, so students can continue sessions over the summer to maintain momentum or get ahead for the coming school year. Summer is also a common time for families to address skill gaps without the pressure of daily homework. As long as the scholarship account is active and funded, sessions can be scheduled on any timeline that suits the family.
Tutero will reassign the student to a different tutor at no extra cost. The initial match is based on subject, grade level, learning style, and goals, but sometimes a different personality or teaching approach works better. Families can request a change at any point, and the transition is handled quickly so there is minimal disruption to the student's learning schedule.
Yes. Families can use their Empowerment Scholarship funds across multiple subjects. A student might work on math foundations during one session and reading comprehension in the next. Sessions can also shift focus over time as priorities change, such as moving from general subject support to FAST assessment preparation closer to testing windows.
The tutor begins with an informal assessment to identify where the gaps are, then builds a plan that works forward from the student's actual level rather than their enrolled grade. A fifth grader reading at a second-grade level will start with foundational skills and build upward at a pace that is challenging but manageable. Progress is tracked against the Florida B.E.S.T. Standards so families can see measurable growth over time.
