Our tutors attend an 8 hour interactive training session to learn tutoring techniques and best practices for working with adult learners.  Upon completion of the training, tutors are matched with a student.  Together they determine a mutually convenient time and place to meet for 2 hours per week.  Our coordinators provide ongoing support to both students and tutors.

Please call to discover how helping an adult student reach his/her goals can be a truly rewarding experience.
