We hope to offer you more than just volunteer hours for school or Presidential Volunteer Service Awards as Wordology provides a platform for our volunteers to share their interests with a younger audience. While our main lessons are focused on vocabulary-building, history, and writing, we welcome our volunteers to teach any subject they are passionate about. Additionally, we believe our volunteers can improve their speaking skills and confidence level through teaching, or advance design skills through other roles. 

As our classes are geared to elementary and middle school students, our volunteers are preferably in high school, although we may also consider exceptional middle schoolers. Most classes are online so there is no location requirement.
