Reviews

Tutor

October 2020 Riverside, CA
“POWAN Initiative provided a flexible volunteering opportunity to assist students globally in subjects that tutors felt comfortable teaching. I was able to create my own schedule and work with K-12 students weekly to assist with homework and lessons from the classroom. I liked being able to volunteer remotely and be there for students when they need it the most!”

“POWAN is a great working experience filled with passionate and dedicated volunteers. I have been with POWAN for over two years as a tutor and operations member. The most rewarding part of being a POWAN tutor is being able to see your student learn and grow in a subject they struggled with. I have also joined POWAN operations lead group to assist with POWAN’s future endeavors. ”
