Literacy Support Volunteer (Crewmate)

What You'll Do: 

The Literacy Pirates is an educational charity working to develop the literacy, confidence and perseverance of young people in Hackney and Haringey, so that they achieve both in school and in the world beyond. We know that young people sometimes need some extra help to achieve their full potential, and we believe that providing support outside of school can really help young people to do better in the classroom, while also developing their broader skills. We also believe that learning should be a great adventure! So working together with local schools, families and volunteers, we deliver unique real-world learning projects (such as published books, films, and apps) in our own unconventional learning environment. 

 

You will be providing one to one or small group support to 9 to 13 year olds with the guidance of a session leader.

Why You'll Love It: 

While our sessions aim to improve the literacy of young people, they are also a lot of fun! 

What We're Looking For: 

Postive and enthusastic people!
