Responsibilities/Tasks
With an IRC staff member, the volunteer will assist a group of 13 Middle School students with their homework in a library setting. Tutoring could be done 1 on 1 or with a small group, depending on the needs of the students and their homework. If students do not have homework or have completed it with remaining time, the volunteer can also assist with English Learning Activities. These activities will focus on the English alphabet, building vocabulary, beginning conversational English, and basic academic vocabulary.
The program will run on Thursdays for 10 weeks in Maryvale. A volunteer able to commit to all or most days would be ideal.
