A 2-hour weekly commitment or flexible substitute scheduling are available. Applications to be a tutor are accepted throughout the year. Training and support provided. The program is generally closed during school holidays.
Skills- Tutoring: Patience and a positive, friendly attitude are a must. Group tutoring will focus on either Reading or Mathematics instruction at the elementary or lower middle-school levels.

Mission Statement
SYFC is a non-profit organization dedicated to providing essential services to Somali and other underserved populations in King County.
Description
Built by Immigrants, Refugees and Volunteers, SYFC has challenged itself to give back to those groups through our Housing, Education, Advocacy and Community Engagement programs. For over a decade we have built leaders and promoted productive participation in an increasingly diverse society.
Education is enrichment and we engage students with opportunities that inspire young people to become life long learners. We offer security to those who are facing homelessness or displacement from our talented Case Managers in Housing. SYFC Advocates by going out into our community and getting their needs met. We Engage Communities by frequently hosting events where we gather and collaborate to craft solutions to everyday problems.
We work together to build a network that offers a better and more sustainable quality of life. Each department is constantly growing and stands as a testament to the hard work the people of SYFC put into this organization every day. Stand back and watch as Somali Youth & Family Club changes the world!
