OASIS Tutors work with children age 5-9 who need help developing reading and language skills.

Volunteers work one-on-one with the child during the school day. No experience is needed. A free 12-hour training program is provided. Monthly meetings provide opportunities to meet other tutors, ask questions and share ideas.

My OASIS Tutor

"I have great memories of my tutor. I always looked forward to Tuesday because I knew she would be there. My OASIS tutor made me feel like she really cared about me being successful. I enjoyed having that individual time to strengthen my reading skills. I know she would be proud to know now that I am in high school, in an all honors class."
  - Brianna Jenkins

 "As a parent, I appreciate the time that the OASIS tutor was able to donate assisting my daughter in a school setting. The extra attention of a caring adult working one-on-one with Brianna was just what she needed, not only to work on her reading but the added attention made her feel really special and gave her confidence. This program is a true asset to elementary students.
