Q: How has
your experience been so far as a tutor?
A: My experience so far has been really good. I enjoy helping people learn new skills that they can use to achieve their personal goals. Itis also a very rewarding experience being part of a learner's progress through the ALS program. It is such a good feeling hearing back from my learners on how they implement the skills they learned in their daily lives.
Q: Give three
reasons why being a tutor might influence an adult member in your community
struggling with literacy skills.
A: Whether it is reading the morning newspaper, applying for a job, or communicating with doctors, a tutor can help a learner achieve these goals. Another reason is by prioritizing their needs in a one-to-one setting. Sometimes it is difficult to keep up in a class with 20 other students with different goals, while working with a tutor focuses on the learner’s individual goals, level, and pace. READ MORE ➤➤
