ELL Volunteer Application

Thank you for your interest in volunteering at the library! We are currently seeking individuals to provide one-on-one support to adult community members who are learning the English language. Volunteering in this capacity entails 30-60-minute sessions during which English language learners receive support in reaching their language goals. Support can come in the form of conversation partners and English instruction. Due to the level of interest in volunteering at the library, we do not always have volunteer positions available, but if you would fill out the form below with a little information about your interests and availability, we will contact you if we have an opening that fits.
