Our learners: Neighbors, co-workers, and friends.

Our learners are adult men and women of all ages, nationalities, economic and social backgrounds living in west suburban Chicago. They’re just like you and me. Trying to live, work and become active members of the community, sometimes struggling along the way. But the good news is that learning to read, write, speak and understand English better is possible and the results are exponential.  

Each learner has their own unique literacy needs.

• Some want to know how to fill out employment applications.
• Some want to improve their work skills.
• Some want to read to their children.
• Some want to communicate with teachers.
• Some want to understand their doctors.

Each learner is individually paired with a tutor so they can meet their personal goals.
