Metro North ABE needs math tutors for drop in math sessions in our computer lab. This position offers a low-stress, fun volunteer opportunity helping with a variety of levels of math with adult learners.
Volunteer shifts are flexible for Tuesdays, Wednesdays, or Thursdays, anytime from 9AM to 1PM. We prefer if volunteers commit to a minimum of 2 hour blocks.
Potential volunteers must be willing to work with a very diverse population. They must have an awareness of and willingness to continue working on personal attitude, implicit bias, and unintended actions that potentially hurt people in: perceived or racialized minorities, differently-abled persons, other religions or non-religious people, those with diverse political positions, those of diverse ages, and LGBTQ people.
Metro North Adult Basic Education offers free classes to develop basic skills for adults ages 17 and up who are not enrolled in a high school program. Metro North ABE is part of a state-wide network overseen by the Minnesota Department of Education and is funded with both federal and state funds.

Description
Metro North Adult Basic Education is a well established program, known as a collaborative partner sharing resources and working to find new and innovative ways to meet the needs of our learners. We have been serving a diverse population of adult learners in the north metro communities of the Twin Cities (Minneapolis and St Paul) for more than 30 years. Metro North ABE is one of the largest consortiums in the state and is recognized as a leader in the best practices in adult basic education.
We are comprised of 8 school districts, providing free classes to adults for learning English, basics in reading, writing and math skills, citizenship, preparation for college placement, GED preparation, diploma, basic computer skills, transitions to post-secondary, and work place readiness. Last year we provided services to over 2000 learners. About half are learning English in our ESL program, and the other half are in basic skills development, GED, and other classes.
Metro North's diversity is not only in its adult learners, its sites are unique in offering urban, suburban, rural and small town settings. Covering the northern part of the Twin Cities, the consortium includes these school districts: Anoka-Hennepin, Brooklyn Center, Centennial, Columbia Heights, Elk River, Fridley, Spring Lake Park and St. Francis.
