Are you interested in sharing their love for reading with K-3 students? Philly Reading Coaches is looking for volunteers to serve as reading coaches during after-school programs in Community Schools.
35% of Philadelphia 3rd graders are reading at or above grade-level benchmarks. As a reading coach, you will work with students one-on-one to improve their literacy skills and help them develop a love for reading. Reading coaches are friends, mentors, and motivators. With a commitment of just one hour a week, you can make a difference in the lives of young students while earning community service hours.
If you are interested in volunteering, please visit the Philly Reading Coaches website or email PRC@phila.gov for more information.
