Students who come to the Centers are adults over 16, are out of school, and would like to improve their reading and writing.
Students can join a tutoring group of three to six students. The groups meet twice a week and are led by volunteer tutors who are guided by professional staff.
Adult learners can also come to the Centers to borrow easy-to-read books and make appointments to use computers.

- Be responsible for working with the tutor to plan lessons.
