Volunteer Spotlight: Audrey, literacy tutor and summer intern

Audrey
Tutoring since 2016
Personal Interests: Special Olympics, Best Buddies, NEHS, and GSLC youth group and fusion program

Why I tutor at GiGi’s: “I tutor at GiGi’s because of the relationships that come out of it. I love not only seeing the progress of their literacy skills, but seeing the way our friendships develop as well. Giving a high-five and seeing a big smile across their face after completing an activity brings me such joy and I love being a part of their progress and success. GiGi’s has been a place where I have grown my love for helping students with special needs and have learned skills through tutoring and volunteering that will help me in my future career!”

The future: This fall Audrey will be attending Washington University in St. Louis to pursue a career in Speech Pathology.
