    Description

    Peer Academic Tutor for Low-Income Students

    ConnectEd is a student-led nonprofit connecting older student volunteers with younger learners who need free 1-on-1 academic support. We are looking for motivated middle and high schoolers who want to earn verified volunteer hours while making a real difference in a student's life.

    As a ConnectEd tutor, you will:

    • Be matched 1-on-1 with a younger student who needs academic support in STEM or core subjects
    • Hold weekly or biweekly virtual sessions via Google Meet (30 to 60 minutes each)
    • Earn verified volunteer hours logged and approved by our leadership team
    • Have the opportunity to advance to Senior Tutor and take on leadership roles

    No prior tutoring experience is required. We provide full onboarding, a structured session format, and ongoing support from our team. All sessions are fully online, so you can volunteer from anywhere on a schedule that works for you.

    This opportunity is ideal for students seeking NHS volunteer credit, community service hours, or meaningful leadership experience for college applications.

    To get started, fill out the application on Idealist or fill out our sign-up form at connecting-education.org or reach out at contact@connecting-education.org.
