Chapter One @chapterone_ca

Today, TutorMate has become Chapter One! We want to bring literacy to even more children at the time they need it most. So we're changing our name to better represent our work and core belief that reading is the foundation of learning and opportunity. chapterone.org/ca

@FriendlyFuture @foodforlife @TELUS Great work!

I first learned about @TutorMate_CA through a grant they received from @TELUS @FriendlyFuture Foundation. A year later, I’m now a proud volunteer tutor working with a child who is dedicated to improve her reading abilities. I’ve got so much out of the experience. #givewherewelive

It’s #NationalVolunteerWeek, and we want to express our gratitude to our corporate volunteers who help us close the early literacy gap in high-need communities throughout Canada. Helping a student learn to read can change the trajectory of their life! tutormate.ca/corporate-volu…

Kids struggling to read at grade level by the end of grade one are 3.5x less likely to graduate from high school. Your workplace can connect children and communities to early literacy training by signing up to become @TutorMate_CA reading coaches! innovationsforlearning.org/canada/corpora… #NVW2022

Our next original storybook is live! Emily Côté the illustrator for "Ruby Rules the Rink," shares why she relates to the hero of our story, Ruby. Chi-miigwech, @DeloitteCanada, for helping us bring this story to life!

On #FamilyLiteracyDay, we want to highlight the vital work that our charity partner @TutorMate_CA is doing to close the literacy gap for children from under-resourced families. Learn more in this engaging #TELUSTalks with @FabriceGrover and @tamarataggart: youtube.com/watch?v=Txrr3n…

🎒 In-person or 💻 remote - our 1:1 #HighDosageTutoring can be delivered in either learning environment! As COVID continues to force students to be kept home from school, ELIs can still conference with students at home via their parents' smartphones. youtube.com/watch?v=B-SXxj…

Virtual tutoring has just as much of an impact on our corporate volunteers as it does on the students they tutor! Thanks to Jennifer from @DeloitteCanada for her work as a TutorMate Volunteer. Read her story: hubs.la/Q010Kw2p0

Happy International Volunteer Day! We thank all the workplace volunteers who support our global effort to improve literacy for all. Their generosity helps children receive online tutoring in the United States, Canada, and the United Kingdom. innovationsforlearning.org
