I’ve been accepted and they’ve possibly found a match for me.

good luck

Just met my little last week. Nice kindergarten kid—I plan to help with his reading skills over the next year.

cool.

How long did it take from when they said that they had found you a match until you actually met them?

They haven’t called me back yet to setup a meeting.

it took a while

After the interview I was accepted later that week. They told me they’d have a match coordinator talk to me by the end of the following week, but it ended up taking about 3 weeks. It all worked out in the end and the match coordinator was a cool person.

I went for my second time yesterday. I’m basically helping out with reading and plan to work on that inside the classroom with the teacher and other kids for the rest of the year. I like meeting inside the classroom during their reading out when kids are pairing off in groups and with other Bigs and parents for reading time.

Good luck!

Meeting soon

They called me back yesterday and they are going to setup a meeting soon. So I am well on my way.

Sounds like your match is working out well.
