Apply Now for Fall Tutor Positions
September 2, 2010
Applications are now available for fall Volunteer Tutor positions. The backbone of our school-year program, tutors work one-on-one or in small groups with our motivated fifth and sixth graders, helping students successfully complete homework and exposing them to new academic challenges. Tutors volunteer one afternoon per week, for two hours, on a Monday, Tuesday, or Wednesday, and make a semester-long commitment - from early October to mid-December. 

 

Applications are due September 10 (Round 1) and September 24 (Round 2). Click here to learn more.

My students were growing personally and academically each week. Their dedication inspired me to work harder to ensure that they were getting something out of every one of my lessons.

Breakthrough has taught me to manage time, be a leader, be confident, believe in all students, and to really cherish education as a tool to inspire.
