Our workforce classes teach industry specific skills and vocabulary, and include industry specific certificates. They also teach soft skills/transferable skills such as teamwork, reasoning, critical thinking, conflict management, etc.
Some of our students need one on one tutoring to help them maximize their in-class learning: be it math, reading, writing, or computers.
For each student you work with, you will have the opportunity to talk to the teacher(s) to gain insight on what the goals/objectives are that need attention and what is working best with the student.
Give a few hours a month to help a student be the best they can be!
