Volunteer Opportunity Details:

Partners in Math volunteers engage small groups of students in solving math problems in class during the school day. Volunteers bring their enjoyment of math, relevance, and real-world experience to students in underserved communities.

Volunteers “coach” a small group of students in a math classroom for 45 minutes each week. Every week, the teacher presents a lesson to their students and volunteers. Each volunteer then coaches a small group of 3-4 students, who work together to solve the problems of the day. Every student is in a group with a volunteer. The teacher remains in the classroom to support the program.

Interested volunteers can register at http://www.austinpartners.org/volunteers/volunteer_center.shtml. Choose Partners in Math, Register Now. Upon registration, volunteers will be contacted about training and placement.
