Summary

As coordinator of the VoorleesExpress Wageningen you support 5 volunteers who read to children with a language deficit.

Detailed description

VoorleesExpress Wageningen supports children who could use some extra support in their language development. Volunteers read to the family for 1 hour per week for 20 weeks. They also do other language activities to stimulate the child in this. There are currently 3 coordinators. We are looking for someone to strengthen this team.


What are you going to do?

As a coordinator, you support 5 readers and families in this process. You visit the families twice in 20 weeks and ensure good coordination between family and reader, whereby the goals formulated with the family form the guideline.


As a coordinator, you are well informed about what is happening at the families' homes and you keep an eye on the expectations and goals of readers and families. Together you look at how reading fits in with the family situation.


You hold three meetings with the readers, where you coach them, let them exchange experiences and ensure that the readers work as intended. You keep the project employee informed of the progress. You also have a digital tracking system.


You will be guided by the project employee of the VoorleesExpress who is employed by the Wageningen library.


What should you be able to do?

-You have at least a higher professional education level of thinking

-You have a good command of the Dutch language.

-You communicate easily with different target groups (readers and families)

-You are easily reachable (by telephone or email)

-You are reliable, responsible and persistent..

-You are 18 years or older.


What do we offer?

-A fun volunteer position where you get to know families from different backgrounds.

-You contribute to the reading pleasure and development of children who really need it.

-A pleasant collaboration with the library and other readers.

-A training on the importance of reading aloud and how to do this in an interactive way.

-An annual subscription to the Wageningen library.


Working hours

On average, guiding five families and five readers takes 2 hours per week. This involves meetings with the readers, the three family visits per family, writing short reports, following the training for coordinators and the contact moments with the project management. A number of activities take place in the evening.
