To Become a Literacy Volunteer
Potential volunteers are asked to attend a New Volunteer Orientation. After that, you will need to attend a total of 6 training sessions to become a volunteer tutor. During the workshops, specialized training in English Second Language (ESL) and Basic Reading (BR) tutoring is offered. Once you complete training you will be matched with a student by our program coordinator. You will meet regularly with your student at a mutually convenient time and public place, such as a library, for 1-2 hours per week. We ask that tutors commit to a minimum of one year of service.
