The Refugee and Immigrant Tutoring program, started in 2005, assists area immigrant students in their academic success by helping them with homework assignments.
Most of our students are fairly proficient in English, but often their parents are not, so they are very grateful for the one-on-one support. No experience is necessary, training and resources are provided, so please consider serving!
WHEN WILL TUTORING HAPPEN?
Wednesday evenings
Session II: January 15–March 26
6:45 - 7:45 p.m.
Third Church at 600 Forest Ave.
WHO DOES THIS PROGRAM SERVE?
We had 125 students during the fall semester from a variety of countries; the majority are Arabic speakers. Many come from our sister church, the Christian Arabic Church. Students are in grades K-11. We will help you find the right match!
READY TO SERVE?
A training session is required for all tutors along with references and for adult tutors, a background check and child protection training. For the spring semester, training will take place on January 8, 2025 in the Fellowship Hall at Third Church.
