English tutoring for adult refugees and immigrants

Open Opportunity

About

We are Potencia, a non-profit startup founded at Tufts in 2019, that empowers and trains college students as volunteer English tutors for refugees and immigrants in the communities. We have so far engaged tutors from Tufts, Northeastern, and Boston University to serve the learners in Somerville and Boston, and we hope to empower more communities by bringing more Tufts students to this cause.

We are looking to recruit students as tutors to teach English, virtually for now in response to COVID-19. We believe that it will be a momentum of growth for many students as part of their school life while helping out the communities. To apply, please visit our apply page: https://www.potenciaus.org/apply and fill out the application there. 😉
