Tutoring Couple Finds Success Due To No Child Left Behind Act

While school systems are complaining mightily about the bi-partisan accountability to which they must conform called, “No Child Left Behind”, the couple has found success as a result of the legislation - and their efforts.

Lew and Sharon Goldfarb went looking for a way to make some extra cash and help kids learn, too. They found both in President Bush’s No Child Left Behind Act.

The suburban Columbus, Ohio, couple bought a franchise with a Florida-based company, Club Z! In-Home Tutoring Services, that provides one-on-one academic help. The Goldfarbs now have 100 tutors working for them, and much of their business is a result of the 2002 education law.

The law promises poor parents a free tutor for any child at a school that gets federal poverty aid but has not made steady progress for three straight years. The government estimates $2.5 billion was available for schools to hire tutoring companies this year.
