Educational Development Group is a not-for-profit agency that specializes in teaching English to Boston area immigrants. We are located at 434 Massachusetts Avenue Suite G-1, and are currently seeking volunteers for our Accelerated Plus Program—a program especially designed for newly arrived immigrants. The goal of this program is to give these new immigrants the opportunity to quickly develop their language skills so they can access employment and/or educational opportunities. We need volunteers to help students master the vocabulary and grammar points learned in classes.

• Teach English Language Skills and Cultural Awareness

• Help students practice their interview skills Search for Jobs
• Give administrative support during assessment and evaluation weeks

In addition, we need volunteers to help us plan and run cultural immersion activities: holiday parties, field trips to museums and libraries, as well as help in the office and assist teachers. The program runs from January 15 to March 27. Volunteers are needed any day, Monday through Friday from 9:30 to 11:30 and/or from 12:00 to 4:00 PM. Training will be provided.
