We are seeking tutors in a variety of traditional Elementary and Middle school subjects. We meet every Tuesday and Thursday from 4-5pm (flexible timing) at the Caser Chavez community Center in Arlington, VA (near Ballston Metro).
These students are an incredible, diverse group of kids from the Buckingham Neighborhood and neighboring communities in Arlington. They have grown up together, creating a positive community to play and learn in while also engaging in service projects for their community!

Description
BU-GATA, short for Buckingham and Gates of Arlington , was established by Latino renters in 1992.
BU-GATA was created to stop displacement from a neighborhood multi-family complex, the Gates of Arlington. As the organization grew stronger, residents began to broaden BU-GATA’s focus to include community stability, and in 1998, addressed another neighborhood need - youth leadership development - by creating the Buckingham Youth Brigade.
As a community-based non-profit, BU-GATA has focused on defending tenants, educating residents about their rights, and fighting to preserve the community when gentrification threatens.
BU-GATA's mission is to serve Arlington's low-income, immigrant communities through education and leadership development programs, focusing on education and civic engagement in public policy issues.
