Making the Most of Your ABE and ESOL Volunteers

Presenter: Allison Reid

This workshop addresses the challenge facing teachers and program coordinators who have enthusiastic volunteers, but want to put their skills to better use in the classroom. Material discusses expectations and concerns of the teacher and the volunteer, how to craft an effective volunteer role, the variety of tasks that classroom-based volunteers can do, and integrating volunteer roles into a few sample lesson plans.
