If you are
interested in using the Building To Teach hands-on teaching methods and
materials you will have to get trained as a Building To Teach Instructor Group.Training involves a two part process: 1) virtual training via materials
accessed through the Building To Teach training website and 2) an in-person
training workshop with Joe Youcha.Once
you have completed training you will understand how to use our teaching methods
and materials in different types of settings. You will also be connected to a
community of instructors with whom to share insights, successes and ideas for tailoring
program implementation for specific needs.
Our program
relies on volunteers to work with students as math tutors and career mentors.Volunteers share their passion,
professionalism and math knowledge with students to teach, inspire and
encourage them to develop their math skills and understand how math is used in
a range of jobs and everyday life.
We recruit
volunteers through companies. Volunteers must complete training via an online
program and our “Volunteer in a Box” training materials.
