December 13, 2021 By Jane Hynes

Give the gift of literacy!  Join us as a volunteer tutor and help adults improve their English literacy skills. Work one-to-one or in small groups to teach adults who are learning to speak, read, and write English. 

Our Tutor Training Workshop will take place on Zoom, Tuesdays, January 11, 18, 25, February 1 & 8, 2022 from 6:00 - 8:00 pm. Participants are expected to attend all training sessions and complete some independent online assignments. Previous teaching experience not necessary.  Our training will provide you with all the essential skills and support to become an effective tutor. After the training, you'll be ready to start meeting with your students online once a week.  All our current tutoring is now online.

Email us at mercer@literacynj.org or call us today at 609-587-6027 to register or for more information.
