Volunteer Opportunity Details:

Last updated on January 14, 2010

Young people are eager to learn, invent, and explore together using the latest in computer technology.
Inspire youth how to work with either:
-Photoshop
-Illustrator
-InDesign
-Dreamweaver
-AfterEffects
-Premiere
-Sound editiing
-Motion Graphics
-Video Editing
-Presentation software

We have your resources: a professional Sound room, professional Camcorder & SLR cameras

Teach through group tutorials and offer your tips, advice, and best practices. We provide the latest software and you play a key role in the youth’s learning process.

Mentors at the CYC Computer Clubhouse join a unique community of University students, artists, educators, graphic designers, software developers, architects, or community members.

Standard time commitment is 2-4 hours per week on one set day. Of course, if you can and want to come more than that, fantastic!

Most important skill a Clubhouse Mentor can possess is the ability to work well with youth. Knowing about computers and/or the software titles is great but what the youth need is consistent caring adults. The Computer Clubhouse is not all about gaining technical skills. It's about building self-confidence, exploring creativity and gaining life skills.
