Our youth and adult tutors are passionate people from the DFW Metroplex who care about children and literacy! We care about more than ABCs.  Our volunteers come from all manner of life and stations in life. We are: hard-working professionals, retirees, high school and college students, church, synagogue and mosque members, unaffiliated folks, singles, parents and grandparents, mother-daughter teams -- you name it.  We are a melting pot of people of every race and creed who care deeply about our students and their families.  ✨WHAT WILL I DO? We place you in a class of ten (or so) students, along with at least two adults, two Youth Leaders, and two Assistant Youth Leaders.  Our students range from those who do not know their letters to fluent readers performing well above grade level but who need vocabulary enrichment, reading for relevance, and every reader type in between.  Here is a link to our Summary of Success for VMSRA2022, to give you a more thorough understanding:  https://drive.google.com/file/d/1BPJEqQjztx00jSUL8ONBDmyRUGbgR5ZY/view?usp=share_link          ✨Summer Academy will take place at McShan Elementary, 8307 Meadow Road 75231  ✨ ORIENTATION and classroom set up for all tutors will be Thursday, June 29, 12noon to 4pm.    ✨CLASSES will be conducted July 10-11-12-13, 17-18-19-20, 24-25-26-27, 7am to 12noon.                 ✨ Student Bus arrives 7am for breakfast and Brain and Body WarmUp.  Classes begin 8am.  Lunch is 11:30. Bus leaves 12noon.                            ✨Adult classroom tutors/teachers are asked to arrive by at least 7:45 in order to be ready to greet and teach students at 8:00.                                          ✨Adult classroom tutors/teachers take turns being in the lunchroom with students for lunch and most of the time leave between 12:15 and 12:30 when all clean up of the classroom is done and all plans for the next day are ready.                        ✨BOTH YOUTH AND ADULT LEADERS STAY UNTIL ALL WORK IS DONE AND CLASSES ARE READY FOR THE NEXT DAY.                                           ✨YET TO BE DETERMINED:  Field Trips are still in the development stage, but you will be asked to chaperone perhaps a trip to the Park Lane Library, for instance, or a trip to the Park Lane Equestrian Center.  Please stay tuned.                                      ✨DO YOU PROVIDE TEACHING MATERIALS? Yes. You will have access to a LESSON PLAN for each day, along with a wide array of physical and online books and teaching materials.                                    ✨WHAT DO WE DO? We group students into five skill levels, one skill level per class.   We often have 10-13 classes in any given VMSRA.   You and your fellow class Leadership Team will decide how your class will be conducted, and who will deliver each section of each day.                                                    ✨Our refugee/immigrant students aged 6 through 12 are in the utmost need of tutoring and socializing.   Many do not hear or speak English outside school.                                                              ✨Our students will be learning basic phonics, reading, writing, and reading comprehension.          ✨Mentoring your student and their family well-being is an added benefit of MRH.                              ✨HOW CAN I HELP? We like to say, “If you can read, you can help.” But MRH is more than reading stories.                                                                              ✨Please provide the following information to become a tutor with our Summer Academy.              ✨ STILL NOT SURE?
