Beacon Place: Academic Enrichment and Tutoring Programs

About this Opportunity

During the school year students need extra support to do well in school. Teen and adult volunteers are needed after school until 5:30 Monday through Thursday and Saturday mornings 8:30 until 12:00pm. This program helps improves students’ skills in not only math, reading and writing, but also to gives students a fun place to learn by doing engaging activities! It is such a rewarding way to volunteer. Simple training is required and is provided on an on-going basis. No minimum commitment is required but regular participation is encouraged for the students to get to know the tutors. Want more details about our programming and volunteer opportunities? Please email Katie Lawler at volunteer@beacon-place.org !
