Position Summary/Job Duties:

Our family is looking for an English language and literacy tutor to work with our 5th grader (soon turning 11 year old).

The tutor would work 2-4 hours per week on a set schedule to do some reading out loud and other literacy improving exercises. The timing is flexible, but our preference would be for Monday, Tuesdays or Wednesdays after 3pm. We live in the University Heights neighborhood, close to West highschool.
