[YEP-DC] Reading tutors needed Saturday mornings in Ward 8

It's not too late to volunteer with FLOC this school year! Tutors especially needed on Saturdays at the Southeast Tennis & Learning Center.

FLOC is excited to partner with the Southeast Tennis and Learning Center in Congress Heights to offer reading tutoring to elementary school students in ward 8 this school year.  But we need your help!  This one-on-one Saturday tutoring program helps elementary schoolers achieve grade-level competency in reading. In just 22 hours of tutoring, students improve an average of 1 year in competency while gaining confidence in their abilities.  Each new tutor allows us to impact the life of one more child. Training in our structured curriculum and ongoing support from professional staff are provided, so no experience is necessary.  The commitment is only 2.5 hours once a week for the school year, from 10:15am-12:45pm on Saturday mornings at 701 Mississippi Avenue SE.  Free parking is available onsite!  

Get started by completing an application online at www.floc.org or contacting Elizabeth Metz at emetz@floc.org.  To start tutoring this fall, you'll need to attend orientation and training next Saturday, November 2nd at FLOC's main office in Adams Morgan. Orientation will be from 12-1, with training following from 2-5pm.  Please email emetz@floc.org to sign up for these sessions. 

Consider following us on Twitter or Facebook to get updates on volunteer needs and deadlines.  We hope you'll join us in our mission to teach, empower, and transform the lives of students in DC this year!
