Volunteers at Star tutor students from under-served families who need help with reading, writing, math or other subjects. The students range in age from 2nd to 12th grade, and attend public and parochial schools across the city. About 65% of students come from families where Spanish is the primary language spoken at home. Tutors complete a written application form and interview, and are matched with an appropriate student. Once the tutor is matched, he/she receives an orientation, and then works one-to-one with the same student each week for two hours. The Center is open for tutoring on Mondays and Wednesdays from 3 to 7 pm, and on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Fridays from 3:30 to 6 pm. You do not need to speak Spanish for this position.
***We currently have a number of high school students who will need to prepare for New York State Regents examinations this June. Most of these students will require help with math and science exams (Algebra 1, Algebra 2/Trig and/or Geometry, as well as Bio, Chem and/or Physics). Some will also need assistance with history (US and/or Global) and English. Some students will be taking the exams for the first time; others need to re-take exams reqired for graduation that they have not yet passed.
You can apply now by visiting https://www.goddard.org/grcc/volunteer/starlearning/ and completing the Tutor Application: School Year.
