We provide free tutoring to children and young people who speak English as an additional language and who may need extra help with school work.
Jacari's volunteer tutors can help your child with their speaking, reading or writing in English. They can also help with different school subjects. We will speak to your child's school and to your child about what to work on in the sessions.
If your child attends one of our partner schools in Bristol or Oxford and you think they could benefit from a Jacari tutor, please speak to your child's school. They will need to refer them to Jacari.
The children and young people we tutor are between 6 and 16 years old.
Our tutors are volunteers. They do not get paid. Most of our tutors are university students. We provide them with training but they are not qualified/experienced teachers. All tutors have passed a criminal records check.
Jacari sessions will take place at your child's school or at your home if you would prefer.
A Jacari session may include games, writing, reading, speaking practice, or help with homework. The sessions should be fun for your child and help them to feel more confident in school.
Jacari sessions are usually enjoyable for everyone and we want pupils to feel safe at all times. If you have any concerns please contact us.
