In-person Tutor - Goodwill Job Training & Education Centers

Save to Favorites

Seattle Goodwill has pivoted our Job Training & Education (JTE) programs and classes to a hybrid model due to COVID-19. We are offering both in-person (with adjustments and processes in place to follow Washington State and CDC guidelines) and virtual classes for our students in order to provide a safe learning environment and accessibility during the pandemic.

Tutors are vital to adult learners and benefit greatly from 1-1 support. Goodwill's JTE Department is looking for select volunteers who are patient, creative, and dedicated to p rovide one-on-one and/or small group academic support to students in a variety of subjects (ESOL, reading & writing, computers, math, retail & customer service and more) as a supplement to classroom instruction. Tutors will also assist students with assigned coursework to increase students’ mastery of course competencies. Tutoring sessions will occur outside of class time.

Primary Responsibilities:

• Provide guidance and academic support to individuals or small groups
• Preparatory work before tutoring sessions: identifying current lessons from instructors and creating examples/activities (role playing, practice exercises, reading materials, etc.) based on lesson plan
• Walk through classroom activities and homework in various subjects
• Provide a wide array of examples, depending on the student’s learning style
• Other activities as needed
