Bilingual Homework Club Volunteer Tutor - Orléans Library
Description
WHAT DO OUR VOLUNTEERS DO?
United for Literacy Ottawa’s (previously Frontier College Ottawa) Homework Club program provides homework help to children and youth all over Canada. After over a year of running our programs virtually, we are happy to announce that we will finally be returning in person this upcoming fall. However, volunteers can choose to tutor virtually or opt for a hybrid model (half in person and half online) if they wish.
United for Literacy Ottawa is currently looking for French/bilingual tutors to help children and youth grades 1 to 6 (ages 6 to 12) with their homework as well as their reading and writing skills.
Volunteering with the Homework Club Program is an excellent way to gain experience in early childhood education or literacy tutoring! It is also an ideal environment to contribute meaningfully to your community. We require no prior teaching experience and provide you with all of the training and materials you need. Just bring your communication skills, patience, enthusiasm and love of learning!
WHERE AND WHEN DO OUR ACTIVITIES TAKE PLACE?
This program will take place at the Orléans Library every Tuesday from 5:00-6:30pm
If you are tutoring online, tutoring sessions occur once a week via Zoom video conference call and last approximately one hour each. Sessions are scheduled based on tutors’ and learners’ availability.
