Become a Literacy Coach with United Voices of Literacy, Inc.

Our Readers Are Leaders program pairs volunteers one-on-one with students in grades 3–7 who are reading below grade level. Through guided reading and reader’s theater, you’ll help a student build confidence, fluency, and joy in reading. Your role will be to assist one student over 4 weeks (8 hours total) to read a script of one of the Avengers characters. You will help them bring the character to life for a live recorded reading in May which will also include your presence.

What you’ll do:

• Support one student through script-based reading

• Help prepare them for a live performance reading on zoom in May

• Inspire a shy reluctant student to improve literacy skills, find confidence and a joy in reading

Time Commitment:

• 1 hour, twice a week (virtual) for 4-weeks in May
