Wisconsin Reading Corps

About Our Organization  Reading Corps is powered by AmeriCorps members who serve as tutors. As one of the largest high-impact tutoring programs in the country, Reading Corps has already helped almost 400,000 students!   Reading Corps is administered by the nonprofit organization Ampact and fueled by research from SeveMinnesota’s National Science + Service Collaborative.   Ampact prohibits all forms of discrimination and harassment based on race, color, national origin, sex, age (40 and over), religion, sexual orientation, disability (mental or physical), political affiliation, marital or parental status, pregnancy, reprisal, genetic information (including family medical history), military service, or any other category protected by law.

READING CORPS Students who read have the power to succeed, and we’re on a mission to make sure every student is a strong reader!   Join Reading Corps as a Reading Tutor and you’ll spend your days at a local school helping students improve their skills. We’ll train you to deliver proven activities and coach you every step of the way!  How does it work? Every school day you’ll see pairs of students for 20 minutes of reading practice. When your time together is up, you’ll help your students return to their classroom(s) and pick up your next pair for tutoring. You’ll repeat until all your students are served.  With the extra attention and support, incredible growth happens. As your students build their skills and confidence, you’ll be there to encourage, celebrate, and cheer them on!  Want to learn more?
