VOLUNTEERTOTUTOR A STUDENT!
As we look forward to the 2021-2022 school year, we know that tutors are needed now more than ever. While we hope to be in person, we know that we will be there for our P.S. 18 students in whatever capacity we can. If you think you can commit to tutoring a student for one hour a week, in some form, please submit an application. We will work with tutors, students, and the school to address any questions and concerns and facilitate keeping this important program in place. Lawyers for Learning is designed to assist our community’s young people in improving their academic performance, self-esteem, and self-confidence, primarily through one-on-one tutoring. Tutoring is open to all members of the Erie County legal community, including judges, attorneys, legal secretaries, paralegals, law students, and retirees. Tutoring is a one-hour-per-week commitment. You may also sign up to tutor with other colleagues if you want to share the weekly commitment. Sessions can be held any day Monday- Friday 8:00-9:00 a.m., Monday-Thursday 4:00-5:00 p.m., or Monday-Thursday 4:30-5:30 p.m. Tutoring begins in mid-October and takes place at Buffalo School #18, 750 West Avenue in Buffalo. If you would like to volunteer to tutor a child, please visit www.lawyersforlearning.org to submit your application. For more information or questions, please contact the Lawyers for Learning tutoring coordinators, Sarah Duval, at sduval@elderjusticeny.org or 716-853-3087 x.225 Taylor Schubauer, taylor@bernhardilaw.com or 716-235-2287.
