Link & Learn Tutoring

Save to Favorites

Link & Learn is a program designed to match volunteers from the community with our youth members in need of help in academic areas. Every year, we have a waiting list of children who need tutoring, yet not enough volunteers to bridge the gap. We are looking for volunteers to help our leaders of tomorrow grow not only as students, but as people.

Being a Link & Learn tutor is a wonderful way to help children and give back to our community. Quite a number of our enrolled members are in elementary school, however we have a few middle and high school students in need of tutoring. Our program runs Monday through Thursday. We have four 45-minute time slots: 3:30-4:15 pm, 4:20-5:05 pm, 5:10 - 5:55 pm, and 6:00 - 6:45 pm. Tutoring is a weekly commitment and our tutors have the amazing opportunity of working with the same member every week.

To become a tutor, one must fill out a volunteer application and submit to a background check. Volunteer forms can be found on our website or by our front desk inside the Valparaiso Boys & Girls Club, located at 354 W. Jefferson Street.
