Monthly Reports:
Tutors, this is imperative. Without these reports, we cannot quantify the number of wonderful volunteer hours you dedicate to our program. Failure to quantify volunteer hours means we cannot purchase the materials we provide to you and your student at no cost. These reports also help us keep track of the success of our students. You may email completed reports. Please feel free to print out a monthly progress reports if you need a new form at Monthly Progress Report (note that report was revised April 2008).
Helpful websites: Tutors and students sometimes request additional tutoring tools such as extra exercises, grammar tips, writing techniques, games, etc. Please see Helpful Websites for additional helpful tools (last revised Jan. 2010). If you know of any other helpful materials please share with us!
"Learn From Our Students" Project:
We are actively seeking written comments from our students as to how our program has made a difference in their lives. Please encourage your student to write a short paragraph about how tutoring has influenced their life (or have them write a one paragraph story or poem).
