    Descrição

    Youth Literacy Tutors Needed

    The Youth Literacy Program seeks tutors to meet with students K-5 twice weekly for 50 minutes, between 3:30 pm and 5:30 pm. The Youth Literacy Program works with two after-school programs primarily serving Black youth. The two locations are in Asheville.

    Youth Literacy tutors work with children from low-income families who read, write, and spell below their grade level. Tutors in this program complete an initial training, which includes some pre-course work and homework (short articles to read, short videos to watch). They then receive follow-up support and the option to attend in-service training throughout their tutoring commitment. Youth Literacy tutors commit to working with their students for at least one school year.

    Testimonials from people who participated in the orientation meetings:

    "I loved the stories that were shared of how volunteers enhanced the lives of adults and children through tutoring. I am excited to contribute to developing children’s literary skills, as I am passionate about literature. ~ Lauren

    "I was surprised to learn about the number of people in Buncombe County who cannot read." Carol
    "I was surprised by many of the statistics about literacy rates and had not considered just how strongly literacy is linked to poverty and family history. All the more eager to help!" ~Karen
    "The statistics shown were very important, especially about gaps in literacy levels between black and white students." ~ Nadia
    " I did not know that you could volunteer internationally. That is great!" ~ Eric

    Thanks!
