 "CLP has opened my eyes to issues I have never really thought about, and given me a new way of viewing issues in education. I feel like I am a better informed citizen after taking this class." -- CLP student For more information, contact

Orientation
and
Training
Initial orientation for working with
children
is supplemented by training at the programs where
students volunteer,
through the CLP reader and
curriculum, through ongoing
mentoring by
classroom teachers, and through optional focus
workshops
offered through the UW
Pipeline and Seattle
All-City Tutor Trainings. Throughout the quarter, CLP students
have
access to online
resources for tutoring, and work closely with
UW's Education
Librarian to locate curriculum and research
resources. The CLP
curriculum
features ongoing discussion and problem-solving during
class meetings,
individual discussions with the instructor, and
ongoing mentoring by
the CLP Head Tutors both in class and at the CLP
partner schools. "The
effect
volunteering has
had on me is tremendous. I am now sure that I
want to be an
elementary
school teacher. I have learned a lot about
one-on-one tutoring
and
how to teach basic math. The kids I work with
benefit because
they
get more one-on-one help and someone who is
interested in them and in
what
they are doing."--CLP Student,
Junior, English and Math
