The Giving Coast

Local adults need tutors!  The Literacy Council of Sarasota (LCS) is offering tutor training workshops next month, May 2024, for volunteers who want to help other adults improve their basic English communication and literacy skills. No previous experience required!  Volunteers will receive approximately 18 hours of interactive ProLiteracy-certified instruction and support over the course of four weekday sessions, which includes an initial orientation. Sessions will focus on teaching adult learners how to read, write, comprehend and/or speak better in English. Tutor training sessions will be held at the same time from 9:00 AM to 1:30 PM (with breaks) over four days:  Monday, May 6th, Wednesday, May 8th, Friday, May 10th, and Tuesday, May 14th. Space is limited & pre-registration is required by Friday, April 26th by calling LCS Program Director, Susan Bergstrom, at (941) 955-0421 or emailing sbergstrom@sarasotaliteracy.org. Participants for these in-person workshops will meet at the Glasser/Schoenbaum Human Services Center, Bldg J, 1750 17th Street, Sarasota, FL 34234. Give the lasting gift of literacy this year and next!  Join the Literacy Council's volunteer tutors who have helped change lives through literacy in Sarasota for 45 years.
