About this opportunity
Opportunity Overview
The STAIR-Annapolis program is a twice-weekly after school literacy tutoring program for Anne Arundel County Public School first and second grade students reading below grade level. Tutors work one-on-one with a student for an hour and fifteen minutes, and the program runs from early October to early May. The program is held at two locations: Tracey's Elementary on Mondays and Thursdays, and Lothian Elementary on Mondays and Wednesdays, both from 2:30-3:45. Volunteers can choose to commit to one or two days per week, or work as substitutes on an as-needed basis. A comprehensive introduction and training are provided for all new volunteers. The program is designed to support students who are struggling with reading, and tutors will have the opportunity to make a positive impact on their students' literacy skills. The program's schedule allows for flexibility, with tutors able to choose their level of commitment. The training sessions will prepare tutors for their role and provide them with the necessary skills and knowledge to support their students. The STAIR-Annapolis program is a great opportunity for individuals who are passionate about education and want to make a difference in their community. With its flexible scheduling and comprehensive training, it is an ideal opportunity for those who want to volunteer and support students in need.
