Preschool Reading Corps Tutors Needed
With the challenges of COVID-19, we know this will be an unusual school year, and one
during which many of our learners will need extra support. To help our students
succeed, Kurious Kids Preschool is proud to partner with an AmeriCorps program called
Minnesota Reading Corps.
Reading Corps tutors receive training from Reading Corps and daily support from their classroom teacher, as well as an internal coach and coaching specialists. They work with students in small groups and one-on-one in the preschool classroom to help students build crucial literacy skills.
To help meet the needs of our learners, we’re looking for 3 tutors for the 2021-22
school year. Tutors receive great training and support and can choose to give 18, 25 or
35 hours a week. In return, they receive a number of perks, including a stipend every
two weeks and up to an additional $3,172 for tuition or student loans. Many tutors also
qualify for individual health insurance and child care assistance at no cost to them.
The extra level of support tutors provide will be essential this year. At Kurious Kids Preschool, we need tutors who are able to begin their service in October, but there are a variety of start dates and opportunities to serve statewide.
