Literations is looking for older adult volunteers to serve in Boston and Framingham elementary Schools as Literacy Coaches. Literacy coaches work one-on-one with young 1st to 4th grade readers, giving students the opportunity to practice and strengthen their reading skills through 30-minute structured coaching sessions twice weekly. Utilizing our proven, evidence-based program, coaches build a mentoring relationship with their assigned students while helping them improve their reading skills. No previous teaching experience is required, just a desire to help children become better readers!
The commitment is a minimum of approximately 5 hours per week (served over 2 days, 2 to 2.5 hours each day) for the full school year. In addition to seeing students, coaches will be asked to log weekly session notes and hours, attend monthly Site Team Meetings, and annual training opportunities. We are only seeking in person volunteers.
