Reading heroes wanted for the Hattenbühlschule in Stuttgart Feuerbach!

Reading is the key skill. Unfortunately, 40% of elementary school children cannot read fluently enough and do not understand correctly what they read. These children need our individual support! KinderHelden would like to help with a proven and simple reading method. Together with the city of Stuttgart, we are looking for volunteer reading mentors for 20 elementary school children at the Hattenbühlschule in Feuerbach.

• You would like to support a child academically and through meaningful leisure activities.
• You are open for new things, for example for other cultures and ways of life.
