Volunteer Literacy Tutor Training

Can you see yourself teaming up with an adult to work on their basic reading, writing or conversation skills? Are you interested in meeting new people and making a positive contribution to our community? If so, become a volunteer tutor and help an adult become more confident and better able to navigate everyday situations. An effective tutor is respectful, patient and encouraging. No previous experience is necessary. After successfully completing training, volunteers are teamed with an adult learner. Pairs typically meet once or twice weekly for one to two hours each meeting. For more information or to sign-up to become a volunteer tutor, please visit the Literacy Office inside the Livermore Public Library Civic Center Branch, call (925) 373-5507 or email literacy@livermoreca.gov. You’ll likely be amazed at what you learn.

The next three-part Tutor Training will take place on the following dates from

6 p.m. – 8:30 p.m. at the Livermore Public Library Civic Center, 1188 S. Livermore Ave., Livermore, CA (please note - participants attend all three sessions):
