R2S Volunteer Tutor Training
January 15, 2025 @ 6:00 pm - 8:00 pm
Free
Read 2 Succeed (R2S) is on a mission to help close the race-based opportunity gap through community-powered literacy programming that engages children, families, and community partners.
Join New Reading Tutor Training in January – Wednesday, 1/15, 22, and 29, 2025 from 6 PM – 8 PM on Zoom. *New tutors must complete all three days of training*
Due to Helene, students missed more than a month of school. Now, more than ever, they deserve the absolute best our community can give them to support their education!
We are looking for dedicated volunteer reading tutors who are available to build a lasting relationship with a student for the entire school year, meeting with them twice a week either during or after school. Our volunteers believe in all students’ innate ability to learn and grow as a reader and understand the role of community-powered literacy in Asheville and Buncombe County.
