If you have a student in your class who you feel would benefit from one-on-one tutoring, please fill out a referral form and we will do our best to match that student with an America Reads*America Counts Tutor.

We can not guarantee that every student will be matched, because it is dependent on how many tutors apply to our program, but we will do everything that we can to find a suitable match.

If you have worked with a tutor who you feel has gone above and beyond the job description and has helped change the life of one of your students please nominate that tutor for one of our end-of-year tutor awards. Recognition is important in our program, especially since we rely so heavily on volunteers who choose to make a difference in their spare time.

Teacher's Responsibility

Our tutors will be working directly with you on material to be covered and any special needs of the student. You will be acting as their supervisor for this time period and will be expected to sign off on the tutor's hours every month for our payroll sheets.

In the case that the student is sick, or if the school is out of session for some reason you will need to contact, via email or phone, the tutor so that they don't come when they can not tutor.

Tutor's Responsibility

The tutor will act in a professional manor that best represents America Reads*America Counts, and themselves. Tutors will wear a name badge at all times within the Bozeman School System. If the tutor is sick, or in any other way unable to attend a session with a student, the tutor will inform the homeroom teacher as soon as possible about their absence.

We expect at least a one semester commitment out of our tutors. We try to make every effort to give the students in our program some stability with their tutors so that a trusting relationship can form and foster growth.
