COMMISSION MEMORANDUM
TO: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Commission
FROM: Commissioner Michael Gongora
DATE: January 13,2021
SUBJECT:DISCUSSION AND VOTE REGARDING COLLEGE STUDENTS
OFFERING TUTORING SERVICES TO MIAMI BEACH STUDENTS.
ANALYSIS
Please place on the Jan 13 Commission agenda item a discussion and vote regarding college
students offering tutoring services to Miami Beach students. There are many students across
the country who have been struggling with their classes irrespective of the pandemic. It would
be a win- win for the college student and the Miami Beach student as some colleges have
completely go online for the rest of the remaining semesters. I understand that currently we
have funds for school interventionists. Please feel free to contact Diana Fontani should you
need any additional information.
