My Learning Studio OUTREACH (MLSO) was created by Lorna Jenkins when Riverside and surrounding areas were severely affected by the 2008 recession. Lorna's for-profit learning center, My Learning Studio was already established in the community and many people advocated for discounted tutoring due to job losses. Lorna could not turn away from the community in need, thus My Learning Studio OUTREACH was created.
MLSO provides private individualized tutoring to under-resourced students from Riverside and surrounding areas in all levels of mathematics, sciences, reading comprehension and writing.

Our instructors lead small groups and one on one tutoring to ensure the success of each student. Instructors focus on the student's homework and subject content being taught in their school course, which includes California's Common Core standards.
We begin with the basics to ensure that each student has a strong foundational understanding of the subject matter before moving on to more advanced concepts. This approach allows students to develop the confidence they need to succeed in their class assignments and tests.
