Volunteer With Us

We’re thrilled you’re considering joining our team of volunteers.

Tri-County Literacy Council volunteers support the agency in the following positions.

One-on-One Tutor

Volunteer tutors are trained to work one-on-one with learners to improve their literacy skills using interesting and relevant materials and techniques. Adult volunteers from our community are needed to assist adult learners with reading, writing, basic math and computer skills.

Training is offered to volunteers who are then matched with students and/or with a training program. A hands-on training course gives them the skills and techniques they need to feel comfortable in their role as a tutor. The tutors are provided with a strong support system, regular monitoring, and individual consultation to ensure satisfaction and success. Training includes topics such as:

  • Characteristics of the Adult Learner
  • Tutor/Learner Motivation
  • Alpha Route training
  • Available resources
