Volunteers in Tutoring Adult
Learners (VITAL) Basic Literacy Tutors provide adults with instruction in basic
to intermediate reading, writing, and math. Prospective tutors first attend a
mandatory orientation for new VITAL volunteers, which provides an overview of
adult literacy issues and the expectations of volunteers, learners, and staff.
Upcoming orientations will be from 6:30-8 p.m. on Oct. 14, and from 10-11:30
a.m. on both Oct. 23 and Dec. 11. Registration is required. Volunteers are then
provided with free training, are matched with adult learners, and can expect to
spend 2-3 hours a week on tutoring and record keeeping. Minimum age is 18.
