Help Elementary School Students with Reading or Math
Norfolk County RSVP invites adults age 55+ to support elementary school students by providing one‑on‑one and small‑group assistance in reading or math through our Elementary School Partner Program.
Volunteer tutors work directly with host teachers in K–5 classrooms, helping students who need extra academic support to build skills, confidence, and a love of learning. No prior teaching experience is required—just patience, reliability, and a genuine interest in working with children.
