Programs

Literacy Outreach offers different programs for different types of adult learners.  We strive to meet the need of every adult learner who struggles with basic literacy skills.  We work with native English speakers struggling to read, write or complete simple math computations.  We also work with non-native speakers who want to learn English.  Our English language learners may also need to learn to read and write.  IMG_0675

One-on-One

Our one-on-one program is our largest program.  To make this program work, Literacy Outreach recruits and professionally trains volunteer tutors from the community. Tutors are requested to commit to at least three hours per week for a six-month period. A core textbook and a dictionary are provided for both students and tutors.

Students are interviewed and their individual needs assessed. Prospective students are tested. Students are paired with tutors based upon schedule, location, and other pertinent factors. Tutors and students work together at least two hours per week and develop both short- and long-term goals.

Small Group

Just like our one-on-one programs, but with 3-5 other learners in your group.  laughing on chairsFor more information on becoming a student or to register for classes, please call us 970-945-5282. All our teachers are volunteers.
