Literacy Council Offers ESL Training

The LIU #12’s Adams County Literacy Council invites interested volunteers to join them for their next English-as-a-Second Language (ESL) Tutor Workshop. Presented by trainers Rosie Bolen and Jan Powers, the sessions provide sound preparation for teaching adult students to improve their listening, speaking, reading and writing skills.

A $25 registration fee covers the cost of a resource book and materials for the four-session workshop. After attending the evening of Friday, February 22, the morning and afternoon of February 23, and the afternoon of February 24, participants receive ProLiteracy tutor certification and are matched with non-native English speakers. Volunteers are also needed to help establish an exciting new partnership with Manos Unidas, St. Francis Xavier Church’s Latino support center in Gettysburg. The project will offer daytime ESL classes at their site on High Street. For more information or to register for the workshop, please call 334-3065 or stop by the Literacy Council office at 34 Foth Alley off Stratton Street.
