Support youth in First Hill through One-to-One Tutoring!

Save to Favorites

Do you support educational equity? Are you looking for a way to serve your community but can’t seem to find the time in your busy schedule? The Youth Tutoring Program offers a meaningful way for you to give back with only a one hour per week minimum commitment!

YTP offers free, one-to-one tutoring for approximately 70 students grades 1-12 in First Hill's low-income housing community, at the Yesler Terrace center. We serve a diverse group of students, 99% of whom are children of color and the majority of whom come from immigrant and refugee families. We build individualized tutoring plans for each unique student with a focus on skill building so our students can catch-up and get ahead in school. We need dedicated and caring tutors like you to tutor students 1:1 and foster meaningful mentoring and tutoring relationships.

No teaching experience is necessary- not only do we train our volunteers to be effective tutors, we provide our volunteers with the tools they need to make a difference!

Yesler Terrace tutoring hours are:

Monday - Thursday for three sessions each

4:20 - 5:20 pm (M/W only)

5:30 - 6:30 pm

6:40 - 7:40 pm

Volunteers sign up for at least one hour per week, and are asked to commit to volunteering for six months.

Apply now and help students achieve their potential academically and personally!
