It 's usual to hear of Chinese parents hiring a tutor(家教) if their children are doing poorly on tests.Did you know that teenagers can be tutors themselves?Amir Davis,16,from New York,US.jye.ai a tutor.Together with six other teens runs a special tutoring pro-gram for other kids in his community.The program mainly helps middle schoolers who have difficulties in their classes or who are preparing for a test called the Specialized High School Admissions Test (SHSAT).It is an admissions test (入學(xué)考試) for eight STEM一Oriented(注重STEM教育的)public high schools in New York,
   As an African—American student at one of these schools,Davis was sad to realize that black and Latino(拉丁裔的)students had low admission rates(錄取率)every year.These groups hold only 10.4 percent of the students admitted these schools.
   One of the reasons for the low admission rate is that a number of black and Latino students don't take the SHSAT,with many families not realizing that they can take the test.So Davis tries to help kids in his area prepare for the test while also helping them with other schoolwork.
   Davis and his team recently turned a building that his father bought into a tutoring center.During their tutoring,they first address what the students are doing in their classrooms.If they are having trouble with any specific topic,Davis or other tutors will walk them through it.With this help,the students can try to improve their knowledge of difficult subjects and do better in the classroom.
