Literacy Volunteers Fox Valley to hold tutor training

Literacy Volunteers Fox Valley will host a free tutor training workshop on Tuesdays and Thursdays, May 9-18, at the St. Charles Public Library.

The program needs 30 volunteers to help the 30 adults who are waiting to learn.

The training workshops will be 6:30 p.m. to 9 p.m. at the library, 1 S. Sixth Ave.

The nonprofit organization helps adults communicate in English by matching them with trained volunteer tutors.

Once you are trained, you will meet with your learner for one hour each week at a time and public location that is convenient.

Volunteers do not need a teaching background or a second language to be effective. The workshop provides material and instruction so anyone can help.
