JOB HIGHLIGHTS
The Avid Campus Tutor will provide tutoring for assigned individuals or small groups on a regular basis (2 to 4 days per week) throughout the academic year with possible longer duration. Students will be assigned to the tutor by the campus principal or Advancement via Individual Determination (AVID) coordinator. AVID Tutors will be trained to tutor with the Socratic method and work with small groups of middle school or high school students under the supervision of a teacher in an AVID classroom during the school day. Tutors serve as guides and facilitators of students’ learning through questioning, writing, and thinking and discussing. Students will be assigned to the tutor by the campus principal and the Advancement via Individual Determination (AVID) Campus Coordinator. Individuals in these temporary, part-time positions work with students in middle and high school. AVID tutors serve as excellent role models of motivated, organized, successful college students who believe that AVID students can and will succeed. AVID campus tutors work in a supportive manner with secondary students, are advocates of students, yet ultimately they are responsible to the teacher.
