I tutor at UP RVA because I love witnessing the ‘lightbulb moment’ when a difficult concept finally clicks for a student. I’ve learned invaluable lessons from the students’ resilience, determination, and drive—far beyond what I could ever teach them.

Become a College Mentor
Each of our high school juniors is matched with a volunteer mentor to walk with them through the entire college process. College Mentors help students research colleges, accompany students on college visits, edit college essays, assist with applications, and generally serve as a helping hand and sounding board.
Invite a Student To Shadow You
You can’t be what you don’t see. Our students benefit greatly from career exposure and professional experience through job shadow and internship opportunities. We are always looking for career coaches and professional mentors to broaden our high school and college students’ expectations for what is possible.

Other volunteer opportunities include:
- Event Volunteer
