Hey BOLD!

We hope everyone had a great summer and is ready for a new semester of tutoring with BOLD! In addition to being returning tutors, we hope that some of you are interested in getting even more involved with BOLD by serving on our board. If there are things you love or hate about the way BOLD is run, this is your chance to make a change. It is also a fantastic opportunity for anyone interested in working more closely with schools, teachers and students in New Haven. Above all, it is FUN! (Just ask any of us!) Below is the list of available positions, a brief description of the responsibilities involved, and contact information for the current board member, in case you have additional questions about the job.

There are no strict requirements or qualifications for applying. We really just stress a love of BOLD's tutoring mission and a commitment to making the group the best that it can be. We would love to attract motivated freshmen, sophomores and juniors in the interest of carrying the group into next year. Past experience tutoring with BOLD is also a plus, but we welcome applications from anyone with tutoring/education experience, even if it was with another group at Yale. 

If you are interested, please email This email address is hidden from email harvesters via JavaScript   or This email address is hidden from email harvesters via JavaScript   for an application and return it by email to the BOLD account ( This email address is hidden from email harvesters via JavaScript ). Applications will be due THIS Tuesday (9/7) at midnight, and we will email out the results next week. 

We look forward to hearing back from many of you about board positions. In any case, keep an eye out in the the upcoming weeks for announcements about tutoring sign-ups and our welcome event.
