We are looking for a volunteer who is willing to work in the Arlington community to teach beginner-level computer skills to a small group of Spanish-speaking adults in the Buckingham Gardens neighborhood. The classes would meet once a week on Monday or Thursday evenings.
Classes would take place in the César Chávez Community Center in Buckingham Gardens, a few minutes from Ballston Mall and the metro. We have a community room available for use and supplies will be provided. There is also access to computers and wifi.
Potential teachers would ideally have a background in Computers and be knowledgeable in working with all levels of ESL students or willing to learn. We request commitment to plan and teach weekly, ongoing classes (one hour each) for the duration of weeks/months that you are able to commit. Should a class need to be canceled, we kindly ask for notification prior to the start of the session.
Volunteer must know basic to conversational Spanish.

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.
