NLI Volunteers

 

The Newcomer Literacy Initiative consists of EAL classes with childminding services that run from September to June. These classes are offered Monday to Friday from 9:00 am – 11:30 am and 1:00 pm – 3:30 pm. Volunteer recruitment for the 2009/2010 school year is now closed.

 

All NLI volunteers must complete and pass a Criminal Record Check and Manitoba Child Abuse Registry Check.

 

NLI volunteers will work with students under the direction of the NLI Teacher in one-on one, small group, and whole class settings.

 

NLI Volunteers are expected to:

  • Model proper English at all times, making an effort to speak clearly and slowly
  • Use polite language and social etiquette
  • Be patient with students
  • Support students in their learning NOT provide them with the answers
