Literacy unlocks opportunity- become a reading partner (Oakland)

Volunteer just over an hour per week to empower a student through reading.

Reading Partners believes that our communities do better when all students have access to high-quality learning opportunities and the critical reading skills needed to prepare them for academic, social, and civic success.

Reading Partners is seeking in-person and online volunteer tutors to work one-on-one with students for next school year, 2024-2025.

Give a little over one hour per week. We offer flexible weekday session times. No experience is required, as we provide volunteers with a structured curriculum, training, and ongoing support to help you and your student succeed.

Our students will inspire you.
