Tutoria is a free online platform connecting seekers of knowledge services with volunteers eager to make a difference. Volunteers and clients can join our site at https://tutoria.io. They select their interests (English tutoring, US Citizenship, or legal aid) and availability. They then connect with one another via direct message.
The Ask: Since we launched last year, we have continuously strived to build a model that supports our volunteers and meet our clients’ needs. And, as we have continued to expand, we are now seeking a Volunteer Recruitment Partner to help communicate our needs effectively to skilled volunteers. The Volunteer Recruitment Partner would be responsible for 1. Screening volunteers to ensure there is a skill match. 2. Explain the time and project commitment effectively and 3. Communicate volunteer details to Tutoria leaders.
Why Tutoria?: There is a strong demand from immigrants for education and legal services across the United States. There is also a large supply of volunteers offering to teach such classes. The bottleneck is that connecting immigrants and volunteers is done manually by non-profit staff, who do not have the capacity to provide matching/scheduling services.
Tutoria welcomes all student volunteers to apply with us. However, due to visa restrictions, we cannot accept applicants who:
Want to use Tutoria volunteering to fulfill OPT requirements for F1 or M1 visas; and
Have a STEM degree-based OPT.
We do accept OPT volunteers without a STEM degree. Candidates will be required to submit evidence from their institution verifying that their degree is non-STEM.
To connect seekers of knowledge services with volunteers eager to make a difference.
Description
Tutoria connects people in need with volunteer tutors via our online platform. Volunteers and clients sign up at https:// tutoria.io. They select their interests (English tutoring, US Citizenship, or legal aid) and availability. They then connect with one another via direct message.
Why Tutoria? There is a strong demand from immigrants for education and legal services around the world. There is also a large supply of volunteers offering to teach such classes. The bottleneck is that connecting immigrants and volunteers is done manually by non-profit staff, who do not have the capacity to provide matching/scheduling services. As a volunteer, you will not only create a social impact by helping us meet this need; you will benefit personally by working closely with a passionate group of volunteer professionals, including Tutoria’s leadership.
