Literacy Volunteers Fox Valley will host a free tutor training workshop from 6:30pm to 9:00pm on Tuesdays and Thursdays, October 19, 21, 26, and 28 at the St. Charles Public Library. Attendance will be limited to achieve social distancing and masks will be required.

Literacy Volunteers Fox Valley helps adults read, write, speak, and understand English by matching them with trained volunteer tutors one to one. Tutors meet with their students in-person, remotely, or a combination of the two.

If you know English, you can teach English to a Fox Valley resident who needs to learn. Volunteers do not need teaching experience to be successful. The program provides material and instruction so anyone can help.
