Abstract	Math Corps is an evidence-based tutoring program serving students in grades 4 through 8 that increases opportunities to learn and practice fundamental math skills related to understanding whole and rational numbers. Its intent is that all students, in particular students who are Black, Latino, and/or experiencing poverty, will reach grade-level proficiency in math. AmeriCorps tutors are matched with a school and provide support to approximately 24 students, in pairs or groups of three, for 90 minutes each week in 30- to 45-minute, in-person sessions. The success of the program is built on the collective value of three core features: (1) tutors who share backgrounds or lived experiences with the students they serve; (2) personalized tutoring using evidence-based curriculum; and (3) tutor training and coaching. This study aims to provide evidence of the impact of the Math Corps tutoring program on student math achievement through a regression-adjusted matched comparison design, as well as descriptive evidence about program attendance and participants' math confidence, sense of belonging in Math Corps, and student-tutor relationship quality and focus group data. This report is one in a series of six reports on math tutoring programs. The goal of this report series is to inform the tutoring field more broadly and support the provision of high-quality tutoring to as many students in the priority communities as possible.
