The Role of Tutors in Tutorials

As part of AVID, students participate in student-led tutorials, where small groups work together to solve challenges they are facing in their core classes. These sessions rely on volunteer tutors and that is where you come in!

You do not need any subject-matter expertise. As a tutor, your role is to coach and encourage one group of students by helping them to ask questions, stay focused and lead the discussion. You will be supported by the AVID elective teacher. 

The time commitment is at least one class per week, with opportunities available from Tuesdays to Thursdays between the hours of 8:25AM to 4:15PM. Training is simple, consisting of a 30-minute virtual information session and a self-paced online course.
