About an hour, at your own pace. Nothing to log into. Your progress is saved on this device, so you can stop and come back.
You do not have to know everything before you start. Nobody does.
Denton ISD requires an approved background check before you tutor. Fill in your availability so you can be scheduled.
What the chatbot is, why it exists, and the one thing it will never do: hand you the answer.
Who the Hotline serves, what a Homework Helper actually does, and what the program expects of you.
The camera rule, what you must never do, what to do if a student is disruptive, recording and the session form, and who to contact. Read this one properly.
Where your student is in their English, which scaffold to reach for, and what to do when a session stalls. Skim it now; come back to the part you need mid-session.
Open the chatbot and ask it something real before a student is waiting. Try: “How do I explain adding fractions to a 4th grader who is still learning English?” Then ask it to draw something.
One page. Keep it next to you during your first few sessions.
Join the Zoom at your scheduled time, stay in the main room, and the leader will place you. Remember: you can ask for a second Helper on your first session. That is normal.
Monday to Thursday, 4:00 to 8:00 PM · (940) 369-0466 · homeworkjuntxs.org/start.html
Starting: ask their name and how to say it, chat for a minute (their day, a food, a sport), then “Tell me what this assignment is about.” Say early: “You can use Spanish with me.”
