Description
AARP Foundation Experience Corps is a data driven, proven program, made up of volunteers dedicated to helping children become great readers before finishing third grade. Working collaboratively with teachers and other volunteers, you can change the course of a child's life by sharing your wisdom and experience.
During 2020-21 due to COVID - 19 AARP Foundation Experience Corps DC pivoted the program by serving several schools and students virtually. While we can not fully anticipate what tutoring will look like during the 2021-22 school year, we are recruiting volunteers to begin the school year tutoring virtually with the anticipation and expectation that volunteers will return safely to the classrooms before the year's end. Experience Corps seeks literacy tutors/mentors who are comfortable with the use of a computer, enjoy working with children.
