Support for Volunteers

"Setting tutors up for success begins long before the tutor and learner are matched together. Program coordinators begin coaching tutors in the best ways to work with adult learners from the moment they first meet and they model it through to the first meeting."

Support for volunteer tutors can fall into three areas:

• Coaching and modeling
• Professional development and training
• Recognition

In the following sections of this workshop, we will dig into each of these a bit deeper.
