Details

Make a profound impact by volunteering with Heart House’s Reading Homeroom program! As a tutor, you'll work one-on-one with a newcomer student at McShan Elementary School, guiding them through the basics of phonics, writing, and reading comprehension with a side of social-emotional learning. These young students, who have been in the U.S. for less than a year, are refugee and immigrant English Language Learners eager to thrive in their new environment. You don’t need prior teaching experience—our team provides all the curriculum, supplies, and hands-on coaching you need to succeed. Just one hour of your time can help build a child’s confidence, foster their love for learning, and open doors to a brighter future. Join us in achieving our goal of literacy and justice for all!

Heart House's mission is to empower refugee, immigrant, and under-resourced children in Vickery Meadow by providing enhanced opportunities for educational equity through literacy and social-emotional learning. Volunteers are needed to tutor the scholars of the Heart House program in various subjects.

Volunteer Responsibilities Include:

• Meet with an assigned student for at least one hour per week during a designated time slot.

• Use Heart House curriculum and incorporate social-emotional learning to support the student's academic progress and personal well-being.

• Keep tutor session records.

• Create a positive, welcoming, and encouraging learning environment.

Tutoring Schedule: Monday - Thursday, 8:00 AM - 2:00 PM Volunteers can choose a one-hour slot based on their availability.
