About this event
Reading Partners
Volunteer Tutoring Opportunity
September 24 at 10am
LOVE TO READ?
MISS TEACHING?
FEEL LIKE THE DAYS ARE LONG?
Reading Partners has a place for you!
Just one hour a week can make a difference in a child's literacy success.
Commit to weekly tutoring sessions online or in-person.
Reading is the foundation for learning and success in life. Yet, only 34% of NY 4th-graders are reading at grade level, and it's even worse for economically disadvantaged students.
Reading Partners is looking for 1300 volunteer tutors to make a difference in our community in the 2024-2025 school year.
Give as little as one hour per week to tutor an elementary student, one-on-one for a semester.
Tutoring takes place Monday-Thursday 8:00am-3:00pm and can be done in person or virtually. No experience is required as we provide an easy-to-follow digital curriculum that includes all of the books, worksheets, and step-by-step lesson plans to teach fun, effective lessons.
We also provide step by step instructions on how to use the technology required and offer 1-1 practice sessions with members of our team to ensure your comfortability before beginning tutoring. Want to learn more?
Join us for an information session by registering or Sign up here to volunteer.
