Tutoring Sessions
In addition to classroom learning, Bridge students may request one-on-one tutorial sessions. We have specific tutors devoted to
helping interested individuals become U.S. citizens. Tutors are available on campus before and after work hours. For more information
on becoming a volunteer tutor, contact Jennifer Webster at 617-384-9444 or jennifer_webster@harvard.edu.
Career Development Services
Career counseling for Bridge students involves individual advising consultations, the administration and interpretation of a
variety of assessments, resume and cover letter consultation and preparation, guidance concerning interviewing techniques,
exploration of college and training programs, and job transition. Staff assists individuals in conducting job searches and
finding specialized educational programs through the use of multi-media.
Bridge Resource Room
Bridge students receive individual or small-group tutoring in the Bridge Resource room for all subjects covered in the Bridge
curriculum: literacy, beginning to advanced levels of English as a Second Language, preparation for the Citizenship test, GED and
TOEFL preparation and computer literacy. The Resource Center library includes textbooks to facilitate the tutoring, as well as
information on career exploration, tutoring techniques, college preparation and application, and test preparation. Students and
tutors have access to a computer lab that offers English vocabulary and pronunciation software, online typing tutorials, and
internet access. In addition to working with tutors, Bridge students can use the resource room as a quiet place to work independently
and complete homework.
