Woodland Junior High is hiring college students who want to serve as paid tutors and role models for students in our AVID program. Tutors will work from 9:45am-2:40pm (with a 30-minute lunch) every Tuesday and Thursday for a total of nine hours per week. The AVID program supports students in grades 7th-12th that aspire to attend college and are currently taking advanced classes to become college ready. AVID tutors should be excellent role models who are motivated, organized and successful college students who believe that the AVID students will succeed, too. The tutors should represent balanced academic backgrounds, some liberal arts majors, others science or mathematics majors. The tutors should be people who will work in a supportive manner with secondary students and will be able to understand the delicate position they will occupy; they are advocates of students, yet ultimately they are responsible to the teacher.
