Adults without a high school diploma come to classes ready to make a difference in their lives by earning a certificate of high school equivalency (commonly called a GED). Tutoring is extremely valuable in preparation for the exam. In particular, students starting at a lower level benefit tremendously from extra help and encouragement to persist in their studies.
We are looking for tutors to work with adult students in small groups to master core math skills.
Commitment of 2-3 hours per week is required for at least 4 months. Classes meet in the evenings at a variety of locations. Please fill out our online volunteer candidate form to be contacted about available positions.
