As part of our progressive series of leadership development programs among urban young people, we operate
three afterschool programs. During these programs, our volunteer tutors assist one or two students to complete
their daily assigned homework. Tutors may also help students work on supplemental materials to strengthen basic
skills in math, reading and spelling.
Tutors serve for one or two hours a day, one day a week, for a semester. They typically work one-on-one with
young people. They serve in classrooms of 10-15 students, led by teachers on our staff.
Requirements
Our best tutors exhibit patience, encouragement and compassion, as well as a strong desire to see students
grow academically.
All tutors are required to complete an application and provide two references. Adults (over 18) will be asked
to complete a criminal record check and child abuse clearance form. Students who desire to become tutors must
be in at least ninth grade and have a 3.0 or above GPA.
