Tutoring

Many of Zamorano's parents and community members, including local college students, volunteer as tutors. Zamarano receives help from tutors and student teachers from the University of California, San Diego (UCSD), San Diego State University and Morse High School. Students receive additional help each week from Everyone a Reader and Reading is Fundamental tutors.

For more information or to get involved, please contact Principal Derek Murchison at (619) 430-1400 or [email protected].

Everyone a Reader Volunteer Tutor Program

Developed by the San Diego County Office of Education, this program assists children experiencing difficulty in learning to read. Volunteers receive three hours of training in Reading Recovery strategies and are asked to volunteer one day a week for one hour. Each tutor is matched with four students reading below grade level. Each of the four students receives a 15-minute one-on-one tutoring session with the volunteer. For more information, call (800) 711-READ or visit the Everyone a Reader Volunteer Tutor Program website.
