ESL Youth Program
The Salvation Army is one of only a few locations that offer Youth Programming to the children of ESL students. ESL Students are in class to get a better job, attain higher education, and more. Youth Program volunteers have the exciting opportunity to support the children in their education through tutoring and English games and providing them with a fun, safe space after school.
Volunteers are able to choose the age group they are interested in working with. Available groups are:
Ages 3 – 5: Support children prepare for Pre-K. Volunteers with ages 3 -5 are provided with English lessons/games and are also asked to prepare one activity for the children as well each week.
Ages 6 – 10: Tutoring and outdoor play, coloring, or other designated prepared activity
Ages 11 – 15: Tutoring, outdoor play, designated prepared activity
Commitment Required:
