Afterschool Homework Helpers

Teen tutors

High school students are invited to tutor kids afterschool for community service credit.

High school students (grades 9-12) who need community service experience, are proficient in school subjects (math, science, English/language arts) and who like working with younger kids are encouraged to sign up to be a Homework Helper.

Homework Helpers will meet in the Children's Room on Mondays after school to help kids in grades 3-6 with homework activities in one-on-one drop-in sessions.

Homework Helpers will help kids complete assignments, enhance study skills, reduce anxiety, and boost confidence while earning volunteer credit and mentorship experience. Helpers will offer clarification and advice, but will not supply answers.

Currently, the library is seeking two high school students per one-hour session weekly. There may be future opportunities for more students as this new program grows.

Homework Helpers will not meet on days when school is not in session at Reed Union or Tamalpais Union schools, or on minimum or early release days.

Tasks will be assigned when you check in at the Children's Room (the Teen Librarian is away until approximately October 19).
