ESL Tutoring Table for Seniors

Save to Favorites

ORGANIZATION: Hana Center

  • 8 people are interested

Hana Center (4300 N. California Ave) hosts an ESL table at one of our partner senior housings, Heiwa Terrace, owned by the Japanese American Service Committee.

Each Wednesday, there are appointments of 1 hour time slots that seniors sign up for to have conversation practice, writing practice, citizenship tutoring, and anything else that the student-client may want to work on with a native English speaker.

We are specifically looking for Mandarain, Japanese, and Korean familiar (fluent would be great!) volunteers. Although the housing is owned by the Japanese American community, the residents are diverse! English levels range from true beginner, to high advanced. This is a great way to give back to the community, and fine tune your tutoring skills!

Orientation/ESL tutor training provided, free.

Opportunity specifics:

Every Wednesday

10AM-2:30PM
12PM-12:30PM Lunch

Mission Statement

We are looking for ESL tutor volunteers. Tutoring usually lasts about 1 hour and during this hour you will help the student with their reading, writing, and grammar skills. We will pair you with a student at the time that is most convenient for the both of you. Therefore, we are very flexible with hours. We would love to have you a part of our team and hope that you will fill out our tutor application soon. Thank you! https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1t72EuuxE6ayeoQXPhzgh_32T8HjZBopxJ8-TDVAK2Xw/edit?ts=5b982fcb "Our mission is to empower Korean American and immigrant communities and advance human rights through social services, community organizing, culture, and education.
