About the volunteering opportunity

With our reading club, we want to convey the joy of reading to children and young people and encourage them to engage creatively with language. If possible, the children's own native language can also be incorporated. How you implement this is up to your creative freedom: You can discover stories together, collect and try out ideas and, of course, simply play actively.

Your Tasks

Our reading club should become a shared space - a place that you create together, that develops in a lively, loving and dynamic way and where the interests of the children and young people take center stage. Books, tablets and other materials will of course be provided.

Why your commitment is worthwhile

You will be part of a creative, open and lively project that gives children the joy of stories, language and community. You will help create a space where children can contribute their ideas and where you can build something together that grows and is fun. At the same time, you will receive inspiration, exchange and support - and experience moments that are also valuable and enriching for you personally.

What's needed

For this volunteering opportunity, advanced German skills are required.
What we want from you
  • You enjoy showing children and young people how varied and creative reading and the use of language can be - and you accompany them with curiosity and openness.
  • You are open, patient and passionate about volunteering.
  • Knowledge of foreign languages (e.g. Arabic, Persian, Kurdish, Turkish, Ukrainian, Russian ...) is an advantage, but not a prerequisite.

What you should bring with you
  • You are of legal age.
  • You work responsibly, reliably and independently.
  • You are willing to take part in training courses twice a year to further develop your knowledge and your organizational skills.
  • You keep attendance records for every appointment.
  • You have or apply for an extended certificate of good conduct (in Berlin we can do this for you).
  • You have a measles certificate or an antibody test.
  • You speak German to at least C1 level.

Time required

Regularly
Approx. 4 hours per week.
On weekdays, during the day
The reading club ideally takes place twice a week for 2 hours each time in the shared accommodation in Bundesallee.

Good to know
In addition to the shared accommodation in Bundesallee, it may also be possible to support the reading club at the Bäkestraße location.

Lernzeit Berlin gUG

We take our time.
Berlin schoolchildren deserve that we take time for them. That's what we do - in various programs such as Sprachbrücken, Mobile Jugend-Lern-Hilfe.jetzt, Fit für die Schule and Lernförderung an Gemeinschaftsunterkünften. With strong partners, we can offer a wide range of services and enable children and young people to have a good and successful learning time.
