Our resources: Support to help you succeed.

Knowledgeable, enthusiastic tutors are the lifeblood of our programs. We are here to help you get the information and training you need to establish rapport with your adult learner and help him or her achieve specific goals. Our training and ongoing support enables you to tutor learners at whatever English skill level they arrive. We show you how to customize lessons using every day, practical materials, which will make tutoring fun and effective. Many resources are available.

Our adult learners may wait for several months before they are assigned a tutor, and enter eager and committed to learning English so that they may improve their lives and careers. By tutoring one individual, you actually help build a more powerful, self-sufficient community at the same time. As learners grow and share their skills with others, you will find that improving literacy skills not only improves the lives of adult learners, but also enhances the lives of their families and their communities.
