Description

The OASIS Intergenerational Tutoring Program promotes literacy with a proven approach to help children read at grade level. Since 1993, the San Antonio OASIS Intergenerational Tutoring has paired adults age 50 and older with children in grades 1-3 to promote success in reading. Volunteers are needed to spend one hour a week with the same child throughout the school year. OASIS Tutors have been helping children build reading skills, self-esteem and positive attitudes toward learning.

  • Must be over 50 years of age or older
  • Free training is provided
