Homework Helper at The Seattle Public Library's Broadview Branch

Save to Favorites

The Seattle Public Library provides homework help and learning activities for K-12 students throughout the school year until June 13, 2024. Volunteers support students with their homework assignments and with developing literacy, mathematics and study skills.

The Homework Help Program supports diverse communities in Seattle. Volunteers and Library staff support students to advance racial equity and close the education opportunity gap for students. Volunteers provide a supportive learning environment where students and their families are welcome.

Volunteers must be comfortable tutoring youth in various subjects on a drop-in basis. Because the Homework Help Program at the Broadview Branch primarily serves elementary school students, we are seeking volunteers who enjoy helping kids with reading and math.

We request a volunteer commitment for the entire school year (or at least six months). Volunteers will be scheduled to provide Homework Help once a week when Seattle’s public schools are in session. Those volunteers who are unable to make a weekly commitment can be scheduled as substitute Homework Helpers at least twice a month.

Below are the volunteer openings for Homework Helpers at the Broadview Branch, 12755 Greenwood Ave. N.:

• Tuesday, 4:00 p.m. until 6:00 p.m.
• Wednesday, 3:00 p.m. until 5:00 p.m.

Homework Helpers must be a high school graduate and have completed at least one quarter of college or a vocational program. If you would like to tutor youth at the Broadview Branch, please send an email to volunteer@spl.org to request a volunteer application. Thanks!
