Why tutor with Learn To Be?
The easiest way to earn community service hours
If you're looking for community service hours, we've got you covered. We'll track hours and help with verification. Whether in high school, college or through any other organization that requires community service, we've got your back.
Earn the PVSA and join our Tutor Corps
We've given out hundreds of Presidential Volunteer Service Awards (PVSAs) to people of all ages. And our Tutor Corps is an exclusive year long tenure for 75 high achieving high school and college kids looking to earn a stipend for their tutoring.
PVSA Temporarily Paused: As of May 27, 2025, the PVSA program is paused due to federal funding cuts to AmeriCorps. This means Learn To Be cannot currently process or distribute awards. This is outside of our control, but we’re ready to issue awards as soon as the program resumes. The Tutor Corps program is not affected.

We require all tutors be at least high school age or older, and we ask some other questions in our application below to make sure you're a good fit for the program.
