We are recruiting volunteers for the Fall 2026 Semester across multiple Club locations!
This is one of the largest needs and the greatest impact on the youth!
You can make a difference for a child in our community by becoming a Club tutor! Help a child learn and close gaps in Math or Language Arts during the after school hours at our Bloomington or Ellettsville locations. Training and task support provided, background check and an interview required. This is a semester long volunteer opportunity (10 weeks). Every new volunteer starts off with a quick 15 minute phone call where I can explain the program to you, ask a few questions, and give you the opportunity to ask yours before you commit to the tutoring program. We like to have FUN! Our members know that coming to tutoring is an opportunity to learn, grow, and have fun while doing it. Join us!
Our tutors love what they do and the impact they have on the youth of our community:
- My favorite moment was when a member told me she wants to be placed into ALPS (Accelerated Learning Program for Students) next year, and that tutoring has shown her that she can do it if she focuses and works hard!
- My favorite memory this semester has been one of my students being able to do her 12s in multiplication without my help after she had been struggling for most of the semester!
- My favorite memory from tutoring this semester was when, as I was walking in, one of the students saw me in the lobby and excitedly ran up to me to say hi and ask what we were doing in tutoring that day!
- My favorite story is when one of my students told me that he went to class and already knew the math lesson because we had learned it the week before in tutoring!
- One of my favorite memories was when I had a student tell me that he wasn't sure how to solve the problem, but he wanted to give it a try anyway. His growth mindset was really inspiring!
