Recruitment of 2014-2015 Minnesota Reading Corps Tutors
Position title: Preschool Literacy Tutor – Minnesota
Reading Corps
Would you love to help children grow their reading skills, succeed in school and get extra
support? If your answer is yes, you can be trained to serve as a tutor with Minnesota
Reading Corps at Melrose Schools. Whether you want to explore an educational career,
reenter the workforce, or give back to your community, you can succeed as a tutor. Last
year, Minnesota Reading Corps provided direct services to over 30,000 children in more
than 700 schools across the state.
As a Literacy Tutor, you’ll use strategies that help students believe in themselves and
succeed. We have a full time position in our preschool, and tutors typically serve most of
their hours during the regular school day.
In addition to extensive training, tutors will receive on-site support from specially trained
school mentors. Tutors come from many backgrounds and include recent high school and
college grads, career changers, stay-at-home parents, and retirees. Tutors may earn a
living allowance, educational award, federal student loan forbearance, and other benefits,
and have the chance to make a real difference in the life of a child.
