Literacy Tutor Training Workshop
The Metropolitan/Delta Adult Literacy Council is seeking tutors to help adults improve their basic reading skills. Volunteers work with one student and meet days, evenings or weekends at a mutually agreeable location, such as a public library. Volunteers work about three hours a week; teaching materials are provided.
A one-hour orientation will be held at 6:30 p.m. on Thursday, Sept. 25, at 1218 R St. NW. It will be followed by a 15-hour training workshop held over two Saturdays, Oct. 4 and 18, from 9 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., at the Metropolitan Baptist Church, 1225 R St. NW. Call 202/234-BOOK (2665) to receive a registration form.
