AFTER-SCHOOL TUTORING PROGRAMS
DHA Residential Communities partners with non-profit organizations to provide tutoring programs for resident youth on-site at DHA-owned properties. We believe providing students with additional support for homework, test preparation and key learnings skills supports their development and long-term education goals.

All of the centers are led by qualified, nurturing teachers, and are also able to serve children with special needs.
