The Center is directed by a full-time School Sister of Notre Dame and staffed by a part-time program director, assisted by a cadre of about 80 volunteer tutors.  Volunteers are always needed!

Be a tutor!

Tutoring can be rewarding and fun!

Our tutors are volunteers of all ages and from all walks of life. Many are retirees and former educators, some are university or high school students. Tutors are provided with program material and instruction for each child based on his/her need. Each subject area is under the guidance of a Program Supervisor. Students work on academic areas suggested by a parent or teacher, or as the result of diagnostic testing. We work with the parents/guardians and schools, and seek input from them in helping us to meet the specific needs of each child.

No degree needed!

Tutors come from all walks of life. Most are not trained educators- some are business women and men, retirees, high school and college students, and yes, some are teachers.
