WORDS FROM OUR COORDINATORS
"I've been loving RWD this summer! I feel that I've been able to improve the program based on the experiences I had last summer. I think the program is much more tailored to students' needs, the bond between tutor and tutee could never be stronger, and everything feels much more organized. I'm just sad that this is my last summer at RWD."
- Andy
"If you want to improve, you must maintain a positive mentality. It's not about being endowed with a wreath of mastery or being cursed with a crown of ineptitude. Situate yourself on a track to progress and you'll accomplish your goal, whether it be one step or several leaps at a time."
- William
WORDS FROM OUR COMMUNITY
"We found it to be an extremely positive experience. Families were eager to sign their children up, and having met with the coordinators well in advance, library staff was able to communicate effectively with parents to ensure everyone was on the same page. Registration went smoothly, and attendance remained steady. Our community benefits greatly from this intervention, and overall the positive energy and sense of accomplishment from the families was a welcome addition to the library each week. The children and the tutors brought joy in learning to the library, which is exactly what the library is about!"
- Lynne, Branch Manager - Ocean View Branch
"I found that helping students improve their reading and writing skills was rewarding. I enjoyed the program and it felt nice to know that I was making a difference."
- Wilson, RWD tutor
"Tutors are full of passion; they know about learning techniques to improve reading and writing skills; amazingly, they are so respectful to a parent’s expectation,and they adjust their tutoring according to a student’s personality, strengths and weaknesses."
- Harry, RWD parent
"It felt nice to give back to the community and help kids grow a sense of love towards reading and writing. It was also nice to meet and work with new people."
- Angel, RWD tutor
