Volunteer just over an hour per week to empower a student through reading.

Reading Partners believes that our communities do better when all students have access to high-quality learning opportunities and the critical reading skills needed to prepare them for academic, social, and civic success.

Reading Partners is seeking in-person and online volunteer tutors to work one-on-one with students this school year, 2024-2025.

Give a little over one hour per week. We offer flexible weekday session times. No experience is required, as we provide volunteers with a structured curriculum, training, and ongoing support to help you and your student succeed.

Our students will inspire you.

To learn more about volunteering, volunteer requirements, and to sign-up, please visit our website at https://readingpartners.org/volunteer-in-los-angeles/.

Tutor in-person at one of our reading centers, or online from anywhere in California.

About Reading Partners Los Angeles

Location:

5350 Wilshire Blvd. #36216, Suite 400, Los Angeles, CA 90036, US

Mission Statement

Help children become lifelong readers by empowering communities to provide individualized instruction with measurable results. The Reading Partners program focuses on children from low-income communities who are struggling with reading. Working with partner schools, the program offers children one-on-one tutoring with a caring volunteer who is dedicated to one child's success. Teachers refer English speaking, K-5 students who have fallen behind six months to two years in reading to Reading Partners. Once enrolled, students receive tutoring twice a week in 45-minute sessions. Students who were once struggling in many subjects not only become proud, confident readers, but also transform into children excited about learning and succeeding.
