Description
Nearly 75% of DC students perform at or below basic levels in reading and math. YOU can change that!
FLOC is currently recruiting volunteer tutors for the 2011-2012 school year. Our one-on-one tutoring program helps students achieve grade-level competency in reading and math. In just 22 hours of tutoring, students improve an average of 1 year in reading and math skills while gaining confidence in their abilities.
We need your help! Each new volunteer allows us to impact the life of one more child.
• Training and ongoing professional support from staff provided.
• Must be willing to commit two hours once a week. Tutors especially needed on Saturdays and weekday afternoons!
• Tutor at our office in Adams Morgan or at school sites in NW and SE.
• No experience necessary! Just a commitment to enhancing and supporting a child’s education.
