Teach 4 Detroit is aimed at helping Detroit students get ahead and achieve success. Our current focus is on high school and our programs are open to all Detroit Public Schools students. Students are encouraged to take advantage of our offerings.

The majority of our volunteers are undergraduate and graduate students from universities across the Michigan. We ask that, at a minimum, you are a college student. If you are interested in volunteering please fill out an application form.

Your schedule is based on your free time/availability. At a minimum, we ask our volunteers to commit an hour a week. If you are unable to tutor during the week, you can choose to volunteer during our Weekends at Wayne State sessions.

During the week, tutoring and mentoring takes place at the Academy of Math, Science and Technology at Osborn as well as the Academy of Medicine and Community Health at Cody. Specifics about days and times at each school can be found here. Weekend sessions are open to all students and generally run from 10am until 2:30pm 

Teach 4 Detroit has become a member of ZipCar, and will reimburse costs for volunteers to attend sessions. If you would like more information about how to sign up or how to be added to the Teach 4 Detroit account, please contact us.  

Weekend at Wayne State sessions will occur on the campus of Wayne State University. Stay tuned to Weekends @ Wayne State page for details.
