​Volunteer with Los Ayudantes!   

Picture
One day a week is all that's needed to make a real difference in the lives of deserving RWC middle schoolers - but more than one day or period would be even better!   You will become an important, trusted adult in the students’ lives when you make this commitment to tutor them throughout the year.

For the 2021-22 school year, we anticipate being back in the classroom.  However, we may have some opportunities for volunteers who feel more comfortable or who find it more convenient to tutor online.  If you tutor online, you will Zoom in to a regularly scheduled zoom meeting, and then meet with your student in a Zoom "breakout room."

Tutoring Requirements:
  • 18 and over.
  • No special foreign language skills are needed, but proficiency in English is required. 
  • Training and orientation will be provided. 
  • Background check via LiveScan (the approximately $70 fee can be reimbursed or donated).  
  • We ask that before volunteering, you make sure you can commit to tutoring for the entire school year (September through the early June). 
  • Unfortunately, students under 18 cannot currently volunteer with our program.  However, contact us for information on other high school tutoring opportunities.
  • Virtual volunteers must reside in California.
