Community Literacy Tutor
Using curriculum developed by I Would Rather Be Reading (IWRBR) 501c3, I prepare and deliver equitable and needs-based daily literacy lessons for K-5 students at a local community center. Depending on need, our tutoring is either individual or in small groups. Our (the student’s and I’s) work revolves around addressing student social-emotional needs in the classroom as a response to educational inequity in communities, with a focus on trauma-responsive care and teaching. Plus, the bonds we have created are irreplaceable.
