We are looking for individuals to work directly with our clients to teach skills and assist them with completing their assignments. This may include writing, reading activities, computer training. The clients have a variety of assignments to work on in their binders but may need help with reading the material or writing responses. All of our clients have set goals however for some, more one on one attention is needed.
