We are looking for high schoolers to join our team of dedicated tutors! Tutors can work with students in subjects of their choice. See 'What Volunteers Do' on our profile or visit our website at https://www.steppingstonetutoring.org/ for more details.
Please read the following requirements:
- A tutor's parent/guardian must provide us with written approval of the tutor's participation in the virtual platform prior to the student tutoring.
- Tutors must use personal/private accounts (not MCPS student accounts) to engage in the virtual platform.
- Tutors will only engage with others under the direct supervision of our supervisor. Our supervisor will be directly present in the virtual space (including any breakout sessions) at all times.
- Our supervisor will initiate and host all virtual sessions. If our supervisor is not available to initiate and host the virtual session, the session will not occur.
- Virtual sessions will not be recorded.
- Tutors should not share or upload any videos, pictures, or images of themselves, unless we have obtained a signed form/waiver from the student’s parent/guardian authorizing permission/release.
- Students' email addresses/home addresses or any personally identifying information will remain protected and not shared.
- SSL hours will be earned on a hour-for-hour basis depending on the amount of time tutors spend tutoring, conducting outreach, or creating lessons under supervision.
Student participation in this service project is at the discretion of the student’s parent/guardian. The nonprofit organization is responsible for maintaining student safety and privacy at any time the student is interacting with the nonprofit and its clients. The nonprofit organization will determine the number of SSL hours awarded based on the evidence submitted. Parents/guardians should contact the nonprofit directly with any questions and/or concerns. This service activity is designed to be completed within the safety of the student’s home until the end of the 2022-2023 school year.
