Tutor a Teen
Caring tutors are vital to each student's success. JustREAD's special tutor training sessions teach volunteers how to use our curriculum and textbooks to provide one-on-one tutoring to a student. Our Center Manager, a credentialed, experienced teacher, develops step-by-step lesson plans for each student, which enables tutors to see measurable progress.

"Adolescents entering the adult world in the 21st Century will read and write more than at any other time in human history. They will need advanced levels of literacy to perform their jobs, run households, act as citizens, and conduct their personal lives. They will need literacy to cope with the flood of information they will find everywhere they turn. They will need literacy to feed their imaginations so that they can create the world of the future."
-Moore, Bean, Birdyshaw & Rycik, 1999 Position Statement from the International Reading Association |

"The JustREAD Program is a wonderful opportunity to spend one-on-one time with students in a structured environment. The program gives students so much more confidence in reading. It's a great program, and I am so happy to be a tutor."
-Susan Sweeley, Board of Trustees, Mountain View/Los Altos Union High School District |
