We need dedicated and motivated volunteers who want to help change a life. Sharing the gift of English with a motivated student brings satisfaction to both tutor and student. Students improve their level of reading, writing, speaking and understanding English. This leads to better jobs, promotions, higher education, citizenship, starting a business, helping children with homework. A tutor empowers students to become more productive members of our communities.
There is no doubt: tutors find tremendous satisfaction in helping motivated and grateful students improve their skills and succeed.
Because of COVID-19, trainings are held virtually on an as needed basis. Please contact the Literacy Council to schedule a virtual training. We offer workshops virtually to train you, and there is a small fee for teaching materials. Tutors are expected to commit to teaching about one hour twice a week.

Depending on your interest, you can teach an individual student, a small group or a large group. We have many different levels of instruction from beginner to advanced students.
