Three years ago, when he was offered the chance to volunteer as a student2student buddy, Jeremy’s first thought was, “Reading over the phone sounds a bit odd!”
“No one our age really calls anyone,” he explains. “But I thought about it and decided to give it a shot. I struggled myself in primary school, particularly with reading and writing, and in Year 2 I was diagnosed with dyslexia. I realised this was a chance to help someone with similar struggles, and that thought warmed my heart.”
Student2student is a life-changing program for children who are struggling with reading, helping them to catch up in this crucial skill so they can achieve all they’re capable of at school.
It’s thanks to our wonderful supporters that dedicated young volunteers like Jeremy and their buddies have the opportunity to participate in student2student and do this incredible work. Thank you!
