VOLUNTEER TUTOR TRAINING SCHEDULE

Literacy & English as a Second Language

Revisit this page in August 2008 for the Fall Schedule

No previous teaching or foreign language experience is necessary to tutor. Our trainings provide volunteers with techniques needed to work one-to-one with an adult. Tutors may choose to work with an adult in the community or at the Bucks County Correctional Facilities.

Pre-registration is necessary and a donation of $30 is requested. To register, call 215-345-8322 ext. 103, or 215-968-3484, ext. 103.
