Students: Looking for a way to give back this summer? #TNTutoringCorps needs #collegestudents to tutor 1st-4th graders across the state! Tutors earn a stipend & hours are limited so you can still work a summer job/internship. Learn more & apply by 5/7 at https://t.co/kSzcWvC3Y0

College students across the state have an opportunity this summer to help vulnerable 1st-4th graders retain critical math & reading skills, help prevent the 'summer slide’ and earn as much as $1,000 with the #TNTutoringCorps. Visit https://t.co/uKo7FnVpj0 to learn more and apply.
