Access some of our favorite study materials from home! Find basic reading, ESL, and GED materials, all selected by our staff specialist.

Reserve a space to work with your student at our building. Each room can be reserved in blocks of one hour at a time. If you are unable to reserve a room ahead of time, we still allow for walk-ins, but you may not be given the room of your choice. Please contact the volunteer coordinator if you need assistance in booking a room.

Volunteers are required to complete a monthly reporting form covering student progress and to record hours volunteered at the end of each month. It’s important for us to know the hours you are meeting with your student so we can ensure that all students who are matched with a tutor are actively meeting with them.
