Here is what some of our BUILD tutors have to saying about the work they are doing:
- “Nowhere else will you find a Work-Study job that’s more rewarding in terms of feedback from the kids whose lives you touch. I couldn’t work anywhere else after working with BUILD these past two years — my work days always fly by!”
- “I feel this is a mutual experience — I’m learning new things while I’m tutoring, just as the students are learning from me.”
- “Get paid to have fun and build relationships while making a difference in a child’s life.”
- “It is very fulfilling to know that you are helping to shape children through education at a time when they need guidance most.”
- “Working for BUILD has been a life changing experience for me. To actually watch the kids as they improve their literacy skills is very rewarding. The kids are very special.”
- “Working with the kids has been a wonderful experience. Everyday is something new. It’s nice to have a job where you know you are really wanted.”
