VOLUNTEER TUTORS
Volunteer tutors work with assigned students to support learning across our programs and elective classes.
We provide training, curriculum, and instructional tools to help you succeed. Tutors stay connected with the Program Team and share updates on student progress. Ongoing training is offered throughout the year, and volunteers are asked to participate regularly to continue building their skills.
Tutors are asked to teach twice per week for at least one hour per class during the academic year (September–May). Classes may be held in person or online.
