Yale Education Tutoring Initiative (YETI) Application
Application Due Wednesday, September 25th at 5 PM

The Yale Education Tutoring Initiative is a free resource connecting Yale student tutors with New Haven & West Haven Public middle and high school students. Students are matched with tutors based on academic needs and meet once per week over Zoom. The goal of YETI is to provide structure, academic tutoring, and mentorship to youth as they navigate online learning. Subjects covered include reading, math, science, history, world language, SAT test prep, college application essay prep, and English conversation for ELL students. Once matched, tutors and tutees will meet on Mondays, Tuesdays, or Saturdays. All meetings will be held over Zoom in pre-scheduled clusters that will be supervised by a Zoom moderator. 

For Fall 2024, tutoring will begin the week of September 30th and end the week of December 2nd.

If you have any questions or concerns, feel free to email YETIstudyhall@gmail.com

A PARENT/LEGAL GUARDIAN MUST COMPLETE AND SIGN THE FOLLOWING FORM ASSUMPTION OF RISK, RELEASE FROM LIABILITY AND INDEMNIFICATION   

My child is not yet 18-years-old and will participate in the Yale University (“Yale”) Yale Education Tutoring Initiative, during the academic year, (the “Program”). YETI provides tutoring and mentoring services over Zoom. This document (“Agreement”) covers all aspects of my child’s participation in the Program. In this Agreement, “Yale” means Yale, its trustees, officers, employees, trainees, students, volunteers, and agents.    

1. Program Risks. I understand that participation in the Program involves risks that Yale cannot eliminate, including, among others, risk of property damage, illness, bodily injury, permanent disability, and death. 

2. Assumption of Risk. I voluntarily take responsibility for all risks of participating in the Program.  

3. Release. In exchange for Yale allowing my child to participate in the Program, I release Yale from all legal and financial responsibility for any harm that I, my child, or our property might suffer as a result of my child’s participation, even if the harm is caused by Yale’s negligence.  

4. Indemnification. I agree to indemnify and hold Yale harmless from (that is to say, I agree to pay or reimburse Yale for) any costs, penalties, legal fees, or judgments (“Costs”) that Yale has to pay related to my child’s participation in the Program, even if the Costs resulted from Yale’s negligence. 

5. Governing Law and Jurisdiction. The laws of Connecticut shall govern and the courts of Connecticut shall interpret this Agreement. 

6. Binding Agreement. This Agreement shall legally bind me, and my child, family members, spouse, estate, heirs, administrators, or personal representatives.  

7. Severability. If a court decides that any part of this Agreement cannot be enforced, I agree to change that part to make it enforceable. If the unenforceable part cannot legally be changed, it will be severed, but the rest of the Agreement will remain in effect.  

8. Signature.  I agree that I have read and understood this Agreement, I am competent to sign it, and I do so voluntarily and without relying on anything Yale wrote or told me except what is written above. I understand that I am free not to sign this Agreement and to find a different program for my child.    

Before you sign this Agreement, please read it carefully because it affects your legal rights. Please sign your name below.
