Millie Rosen

Help needed: math tutoring

“The groups of students they would work with (at least for me, in math) are usually significantly below grade level so they don’t need to be math experts to help – just have a positive attitude and be ready to help students!”

Elizabeth Kim

Seventh grade math teacher

Help needed: math tutoring

“The Duke volunteers should be aware they are working with middle school students who are struggling with math (often with math skills learned in elementary school).”

Ms.Rosen and Ms.Kim are open to having volunteers coming for one hour twice a week, or for two hours once a week. Their preference is for one hour blocks in order to better build relationships with the students. Two hour blocks would involve volunteering in both Ms.Rosen and Ms.Kim’s classes.

Holly Woodard

Seventh grade math teacher

Help needed: literacy tutoring

“Lead and work with reading groups and work one-on-one with students to help them with their work.”
