The APC is looking for dedicated, enthusiastic volunteers who can provide encouragement and consistent support for children and youth who come into the Homework Room for help. For younger children, the main role of a homework helper is to bring a can-do attitude and encourage students. Helpers volunteer between one and four hours per week.
Older students need tutors to help them with portfolio projects, math, science, history, English and more. After an initial training, tutors are paired with students and can arrange a mutually convenient time to meet.
