We’d like to get you know you a bit to make the best match with you and a student, starting with this short application. Once we receive this info an Invest in Youth staff member will email you to arrange for a good time for a phone conversation.

Please note the following criteria for volunteering:

a commitment to attend tutoring each week during the school year (substitutes are welcome to apply),
a minimum age of a high-school junior with a solid academic record,
the ability to pass a background check (required by Seattle Public Schools),

TELL US A BIT MORE ABOUT YOURSELF

Our goal is to assemble a team of tutors that comprehensively reflects the diverse communities we serve. We recognize that tutors who share cultural backgrounds and lived experiences with their students can inspire, foster and motivate positive and lifelong change. The optional info below will help us match you with a student.

Have you worked with underserved populations such as those experiencing homelessness, limited medical-care access, language barriers, food insecurity etc., or have you experienced such challenges that may assist you in connecting with Invest in Youth's diverse student community?

Ethnicity

Religion

Let us know if you have any additional comments, including any hobbies and interests that may support you connecting with a student (theater, sports, motorcycles, cars, martial arts, anime, etc.).

Please check this box if you would prefer Invest in Youth not use your photograph in our materials.
