Pros
If you want to gain invaluable skills then look no further! Managers are great about providing support and feedback to help you grow and learn. The entire team is super friendly. Besides helping struggling readers learn read, the friendships are my next favorite part! I love how rewarding and fulfilling this job is....feels great to give back to the Tulsa community! I met some wonderful volunteers and was able to make a name for myself in the Tulsa nonprofit world. Overall Pros: Positive and friendly team environment Check-ins and reviews to keep you on track Working with struggling readers and local volunteers Learning a variety of skills: time management, coaching techniques, data entry and assessments
Cons
Americorps members only serve between 1-2 years. Wish it could be longer!
