Volunteers Sought:
Currently we are looking for volunteers to teach English classes for grades pre-k through 4th. The English curriculum itself is still in the developmental phase, so volunteers with a background in curriculum development, and specifically integrating other disciplines into English language instruction are highly encouraged to apply. Position begins immediately.
This is an exceptional opportunity to help shape the trajectory of a growing organization.
Minimum time commitment is 6 weeks.
Applicants should send a resume and cover letter to Alex Manoogian at perkinvolunteer@gmail.com
