Our Ronald McDonald House Learning Program gives teachers a chance to help ill or injured children to catch up on their missed education.
Enquire about becoming a tutor for the Ronald McDonald Learning Program.
Teachers are paid on an hourly basis to give one on one tuition to students recovering from illness or injury at the student’s school, local community facility, or via Zoom. Tutors are allocated between 3 and 5 students at any one time, depending on the needs of the students and availability of students and tutors.
Tutors working with us need to undergo an onboarding process to ensure the safety of our students.
Each student receives up to 40 weeks of tutoring, usually completed for an hour each week over four school terms. Tutoring takes place at the student’s school, at a local community facility, or via Zoom. No tuition can occur in the student or tutor’s home.
