JaxTHRIVE is a youth-led, non-profit organization with a mission to educate and inspire refugee and low income children. For this Fall 2023 opportunity, we are looking for volunteer tutors/mentors to help refugee students new to the US with their homework. We need in-person volunteers who are in the Jacksonville, FL area and virtual tutors everywhere else. We are asking mentors to commit to at least one hour of tutoring each week during a time that is convenient with the tutor and student. Volunteers will need to review our JaxTHRIVE training video on our website (www.jaxthrive.org) before training.
How does the program work?
Each volunteer must commit to meeting with their mentee for at least 1 hour per week for the duration of the academic year, attend a virtual orientation and training, and provide the program director with feedback throughout the term. Virtual volunteers can negotiate their own schedule if the time works with the student.
As a mentor, you will:
- Tutor your student at least once each week
- hone your cross-cultural skills
- expand your global network by meeting new people and making new friends
- assume a leadership role
- prepare for your future career by gaining valuable resume-building experience
- make a difference in someone’s life
To participate, you must:
- volunteer for a minimum of 1 hour per week.
- be fluent in both written and spoken English.
