  • Reliable, patient, respectful, and open-minded
  • Able to commit for the semester
  • Interested in supporting conflict-affected learners through education
  • Able to meet online with a stable internet connection

Volunteer benefits include:

  • Tutor training before starting
  • Ongoing support from program facilitators
  • A meaningful opportunity to support conflict-affected learners
  • Hours verification letter at the end of the semester
