    Description

    Help a K-4 student in your community learn to read!

    Reading Partners has been pairing volunteer tutors with elementary students for 25 years to ensure that all kids have the foundational reading skills and confidence they need to be able to read at grade level by fourth grade. Now, we’re expanding to Brilliant Detroit with a brand new opportunity!

    Here’s what that looks like: online, one-on-one tutoring, once a week, with a structured curriculum. No experience is necessary, and we offer flexible tutoring times that come with live support for volunteers!

    Tutoring requirements:

    • Be at least 14 years of age
    • Commit to a little over an hour a week for at least one semester
    • Want to make a positive difference in the life of a student

    Volunteering with Reading Partners is one of the easiest and most accessible ways to make a lasting, proven impact not only in your community but also on the future of local students.
