Tutor youth or adult learners in the Homework Center at Rondo Library, once a week during the school year.
Opening September 4, the Dayton's Bluff Library Homework Center will be open Mondays thru Wednesdays from 4-7pm. It's a drop-in center where we serve students of all ages, K - College, and Adult Learners. Tutors are paired with students according to their needs and the tutor's skills, in order of arrival. Each session is about 30 minutes, then the tutor switches to the next student. Students may sign up for multiple tutor sessions in a day. Tutors may help with homework assignments, reading, math, basic English language acquisition, or study skills. Volunteers are expected to tutor for a 2 or 3 hour shift once a week, but we can be flexible.
Before beginning your service, volunteers meet with the coordinator for a one-hour orientation about the program and volunteer expectations. Tutors are required to attend one free Tutor Training during the semester. Fall Tutor Training dates tbd.
Homework Centers are closed: October 8, October 18, November 21 - 25, December 20 - January 6
About Homework Centers:
SPPL Homework Centers are comfortable spaces at the library where students can drop in and work on their homework independently or with the help of volunteer tutors. Volunteers assist students with homework, create a welcoming atmosphere at the homework centers, and act as positive role models for students of all ages.
