AVID Tutors are needed for high school and middle school students in the Tigard-Tualatin School District (TTSD). AVID is a program to help low-income and underrepresented students prepare for college. AVID tutors work with small groups of students in a structured process to help students help each other to solve questions from their classroom work.
TTSD is looking for individuals currently in college or who have completed a college program, can comfortably tutor in middle school/high school coursework (it is not necessary to be proficient in every subject, although math/science knowledge is very helpful) and who can work well with youth ages 12-18.
This is a great opportunity for individuals with an interest in education and wanting hands-on experience; undergraduate and graduate students in education or social services fields; and/or individuals with a strong academic background who are interested in working with youth.
AVID Tutors work 2-4 days per week during the school day for 1-4 hours at a time. Hours and days vary depending on school schedule. Rate of pay is $17.49/hour.
