BECOME A TUTOR
 |
When you're ready to take the next step, come in for an orientation session. |
Join a team of nearly 400 talented volunteer tutors who work one-on-one with students to provide more than 22,000 hours of instruction each year. Tutors are matched with students across all programs, and receive full orientation and training. We ask that our volunteer tutors commit to providing at least 90-minutes of instruction a week at our center in downtown Milwaukee. All volunteer tutors must be at least 18 years old and have a high school diploma.
If you would like to know more about volunteering at LSW, please join us for one of our bi-monthly Volunteer Orientation meetings. The one hour session will introduce you to what Literacy Services is and how you can help in our mission to educate adults in Milwaukee. The calendar on our events page lists the dates and times of upcoming Volunteer Orientations.
If you'd like to attend a Volunteer Orientation, please contact Mark Neufang at mark@literacyservices.org.
