Serve as a site lead and coordinate Allies for Immigrant volunteer tutors
Become a lead citizenship class instructor or conversation group leader
Facilitate a small group of students one day a week in an integrated ESOL/technology skills course



During the Training:

- Volunteers will learn about the 9 ESOL program sites across the city, and become familiarized with their selected site

- Volunteers will participate in a preliminary ESOL tutor training to go over tips and tricks for working with English Language Learners

*Please note that while you can sign up and attend this training without having completed a Boston Cares New Volunteer Orientation, all volunteers trained will need need to complete a Boston Cares New Volunteer Orientation before being placed as a volunteer with the Allies Program*

We are excited to welcome you to the Allies for Immigrants program!
