Literacy Tutor Job Openings

Literacy Tutor positions for 2011-12 begin next August, and applications are processed starting in December. Positions are located in Southwestern Minnesota and statewide, including Mankato, New Ulm, Redwood Falls, the Twin Cities, St. Cloud, Duluth and many rural locations. Students can learn more at: http://www.minnesotareadingcorps.org/

This year, Minnesota Reading Corps trained nearly 700 tutors to serve in schools around Minnesota, where they will gain professional and significant experience, find direction, and help pay for student loans. Their responsibility is to help ensure that children are on track to read by 3rd grade.

This year about ten SMSU students were accepted into the program, and are currently diving into their positions at elementary schools and preschools, where they will not only make a difference in children’s lives but also impact their own.

Questions can be directed to Anna Peters at apeters@mnedc.org or 651-251-9075.
