EDU 102 Reading Tutor Training I

EDU 102 is a one credit course designed to familiarize students with the educational setting of tutoring and with the requirements of being a reading tutor. This training program is designed to develop the range of skills needed to help children learn how to read at the independent level, to improve their reading skills, and to become confident in their reading abilities. The focus of the early training sessions will be on gaining knowledge of basic components of the reading process as well as specific reading strategies used by children at different ages, and activities tutors can use with elementary school children. Tutors will work with school children at least two hours a week. Eligible tutors may receive Work Study funding for their tutoring.
