What Is Delta Prep?
Delta Prep is a completely volunteer-run 501(c)(3) non-profit organization that was founded by Arif Mahmud and Jeffrey Wong in the summer of 2017. It all started with a vision to provide free tutoring to students with socially and/or economically disadvantaged backgrounds.
Since then, additional volunteers that have Specialized High School backgrounds have joined the Delta Prep team to help out with the growing number of students every summer.

Who Are The Tutors Teaching These Sessions?
Before tutoring our students, all tutors receive comprehensive training. If needed, tutors receive guidance from our senior members of Delta Prep, who are either in college or have graduated from college and are working full-time positions.
Our tutors come from all types of backgrounds, but we all unite on a common goal to help our students as much as possible. Some tutors are college graduates, are currently working full-time, or are still attending in either high school or college.
