Elevating Students with Developmental Disabilities
Through Supplemental Educational Services
Who is Learning Aid Ohio?
Learning Aid Ohio’s mission is to connect families with tutors to help students stay on track toward their unique academic goals, specific to their individual needs and based on the curriculum their traditional teachers set. In support of that mission, we provide students on an Individualized Education Program (IEP) funding for in-person, supplemental learning support.

How Does Learning Aid Ohio Work?
To receive funding from Learning Aid Ohio, a student’s guardian or caregiver applies for a grant. Once approved, you can browse our available tutors in your area with the expertise you need for your student. Then, schedule interviews with tutors who seem like a good fit. After a successful match, students can use their Learning Aid Ohio grant to schedule tutoring sessions with their preferred tutor.
To qualify for a Learning Aid Ohio grant, students must meet specific requirements, including:
- Be learning on an Individualized Education Program (IEP)
- Be an Ohio resident
- Be a member of a family with a household income less than 400% of the Federal Poverty Level
