About the Role

ICS is seeking dedicated, energetic part-time Literacy Tutors to help students prepare for and succeed on New York State English Language Arts assessments. Tutors will work with small groups and individual students to strengthen their reading comprehension, close reading of complex texts, written responses and test-taking strategies, while building the confidence and stamina students need on test day. This is an ideal role for education students and aspiring teachers who want meaningful experience in a supportive, co-taught school community.

Responsibilities

Prepare students for NYS ELA assessments, including the grades 3–8 state ELA tests and the ELA Regents exam.
Teach students the structure of each test: reading passages, multiple-choice questions, short constructed responses and extended essays.
Teach and practice test-taking strategies, such as annotating passages, finding text evidence, eliminating wrong answers and managing time.
Guide students in writing strong constructed responses and essays using the NYS scoring rubrics, with clear claims and evidence from the text.
Lead practice tests and timed sessions to build stamina and reduce test anxiety.
Strengthen reading comprehension, vocabulary and fluency aligned to the New York State Next Generation ELA Standards.
Reinforce classroom instruction using the ICS literacy curriculum, including EL Education and Fishtank ELA.
Use student data and assessment results to target skill gaps and track progress.
Adapt instruction for students with IEPs and English language learners, following their testing accommodations.
Communicate regularly with teachers and the program coordinator about student progress, and keep accurate attendance and session records.

Requirements

Proficiency in New York State ELA assessments and standards, including the grades 3–8 state ELA tests and the ELA Regents exam.
Experience working with children or adolescents in a school, tutoring, camp or youth program setting.
Strong reading and writing skills, and the ability to explain strategies clearly in more than one way.
Reliability, professionalism and availability on Wednesdays and Saturdays.
Ability to pass required background checks and fingerprint clearance.
Current enrollment in, or completion of, an English education, literacy or teacher preparation program.
Experience with test preparation or scoring NYS ELA constructed responses and essays.
Experience supporting students with IEPs or English language learners.
