Learn To Be is a non-profit bringing free, 1-on-1, online tutoring to underserved youth around the United States. We work with K-12 students who need help with anything from math and reading to writing, science and history. These students include homeless youth, foster youth and other low income students across the United States. Students are matched and meet with the same volunteer tutor, for 6 months or 6 years! The pair meet a couple of times per week to help the student close gaps, learn skills and get ahead.
Volunteer from anywhere and choose a student based on your own schedule.
Meet with the same student every week so you can build a rapport and help one student succeed.
Whether you’re a high schooler, a retiree, part of a faith-based group, or just someone who cares, you can make a difference with us.
Most of our kids need help in the basics of math, reading and writing. But we also have kids who need help in pre-calculus, calculus, biology, chem, physics and other subjects
Most of our kids are 1-8 but we support high schoolers as well
Our students are prime examples of unfulfilled potential. They're all destined to be great. They just need to practice the fundamentals and someone to guide them along.
