As a Volunteer Befriender, I spent one-on-one time with my child and helped him learn phonics.
I also was able to apply what was taught in classrooms in this programme and learn how to manage children with learning needs.
As a Volunteer Coordinator, I plan fun and educational activities for large groups of children.
I also conduct debriefs for the volunteers on how to manage difficult children by drawing in from personal experience.
