Summary
We are looking for a Deputy Team Leader to join our small volunteer management team so that we can can continue to grow and help more adults to learn to read!What we will provide to volunteers
💸 Reimbursement of costs🤝 Extra supportAbout Read Easy Stevenage & North Herts
Read Easy helps adults learn to read. We provide free, confidential one-to-one reading coaching in approved venues in Stevenage, Letchworth and Hitchin. Our readers and coaches meet twice a week for half an hour. We use a structured, phonics-based reading programme. The confidential one-to-one nature of our service is vital to encouraging people to come forward to ask for our help. Many adults are deeply embarrassed that they are unable to read. Many have bad memories of school and do not respond well to a classroom setting. By learning with one dedicated volunteer coach, a supportive and trusting bond develops, which helps motivate the reader to complete the course.
We are a small team of volunteers. We have regular meetings for reading coaches to learn from each other and every coach and reader is supported by a local coordinator. Our readers are all ages, the youngest 20, the oldest 67. You’re never too old to learn!
