Reading Assist Tutor - PennSERVE

Overview

Reading Assist Fellows serve in elementary schools in Pennsylvania providing reading instruction to students in kindergarten through third grade who face significant reading challenges. Fellows teach foundational reading skills to students who might not learn to read through traditional classroom education. The Reading Assist Fellowship is an Ameri Corps program that requires 675-1200 service hours to be completed between August 25, 2025, and June 30, 2026.

Fellows work with 9-20 students for 30 minutes each day and meet with an experienced coach weekly for feedback and support. Fellows begin with 3 weeks of full-time, graduate-level training and are embedded into high-needs elementary schools. Fellows receive time off for school holidays and breaks. The Reading Assist service year allows time for part-time work to supplement the living allowance, and additional pay may be earned through Reading Assist's after-school tutoring.
