In our Reading Buddies program, volunteers serve a Kindergarten-3rd grade student for 30 minutes weekly. Buddies read books together and engage in activities to build literacy skills. Volunteers are trained in literacy strategies and working with at-risk students.
In our Math Buddies program, volunteers serve a 1st or2nd grade student for 30 minutes twice weekly. Buddies play hands-on games and do activities focused on number words and numerals, structuring, and addition and subtraction. Volunteers are trained by an AVMR-certified instructor.
Both programs provide one-on-one tutoring and mentoring, individualized to meet the student at their level, offer services during the school day to eliminate barriers to access, and track data outcomes and student improvements.
