Volunteer Opportunity - Homework Helper Focus: Education Early Learning Community


Powered by Truist

Volunteer Opportunity Details:

Last updated on October 29, 2012

After school homework help provides assistance to youth on their homework, strengthening their reading skills, and support for any other learning difficulties.

Not every student needs help every week and not every student can commit to a weekly meeting with an assigned tutor. For these students, A drop-in atmosphere is a perfect fit. Not only do our students have the benefit of working on homework or preparing for a test, but the program also provides a friendship and a mentoring opportunity for both the youth and the volunteers.

Duration:
One school year for a minimum of two hours a week
Monday - Thursday from 3 – 5 p.m. (Only need to commit to one day a week if desired)

  • Must clear a criminal background check
  • A mode of transportation
  • Positive attitude
  • Patience
  • Work well with youth of all ages

Note: Court-ordered volunteers are unable to serve in this position
