Upcoming Tutor Training

Each One Teach One

If you can read, you can teach someone to read.
If you can speak English, you can teach someone to speak English.

Take the first step to becoming a tutor by attending Literacy Council 101, an orientation to our mission and to tutoring. Register for one of the upcoming sessions:

Tuesday, February 28th, 6-8pm
Saturday, March 24th, 9-11am
Tuesday, March 27th, 6-8pm
Wednesday, April 4th, 3-5pm

With insight into how literacy expands individual potential, you'll be prepared to come back at a later date for our 10-hr Tutor Training (see 2012 training dates). Completion of Literacy Council 101 and Tutor Training are required to be matched with a student.
