• Volunteer Opportunity Tutoring Mathematics 

  The Muckleshoot Tribal College is looking for a volunteer to tutor mathematics to adults on Monday and Wednesday nights from 7:15 – 9:30 PM at the new college building near the Amphitheater on Auburn Enumclaw Highway. These are math classes below the college “100” level.
  
  They are seeking a student with a strong math background who would volunteer in exchange for a possible letter of recommendation.  If a student just wanted to do one night that would be great, but two would be preferable. 

  This is a good opportunity to get some adult minority education experience. Minority experience is helpful, and necessary, for admission to many teacher preparation programs.

  If you are interested please contact Rich Bankhead, Site Coordinator, via email at rich.nwic@comcast.net or by phone at (253) 735-6647 ext 119.
