Puente has openings for volunteers to work with Puente participants in two different education programs. Volunteering for these positions will earn you major karma points, and help empower local men and women to reach their scholastic dreams.

 

• Spanish tutors for GED program

Puente seeks two Spanish-speaking tutors to mentor adult clients who are in the middle of earning their GED (General Educational Development/high school equivalency) certification.  One tutor should have some affinity for teaching science, the other for high school-level math. Both positions require a commitment of 2 hours per week.

 

• Plaza Comunitaria tutors

Puente needs at least 4 volunteer tutors for Plaza Comunitaria, the Mexican government-sponsored program that helps adults earn their primary or secondary school certificates. Fluency in Spanish is a must.
