Become A Tutor: It’s Easy!
Project READ offers tutor training for new community volunteers six times a year and matches trained tutors with students who are on the waiting list based on their mutual interests, schedules and teaching and learning preferences. Our tutor training classes are accredited with Cañada College for one college credit, which is transferable to any California university or college.
