The perfect organization to help someone learn English. You can also learn a lot of new things. I have learned a lot from my student. Apart from that, there is also cultural exchange which is very good. A good platform to start a volunteer journey.

I have been a volunteer tutor with ESL Program for about a year and look forward to continuing. It is gratifying to work with students who are so dedicated to learning English, perseverant (in spite of personal challenges), and unfailingly appreciative. Working with this program is highly rewarding and highly recommended.

I have been in involved in the ESL In Home Program for over 8 years. I started as a tutor, next as an Americorp Vista volunteer assigned to expand the program into Douglas County and currently serve as a member on the Board of Directors. This program has been of benefit to so many people. The biggest thrill has been to see the relationship develop between the tutor and student. I am very proud to be a part of this program.

The program enables children to achieve the "American Dream" by their parents who want to learn to speak, read, write and understand English tutor them. In our program, the parents then help their children with homework and school activities, can communicate with teachers and medical personnel without interpreters, attain GED for jobs, and become U.S. citizens.

In my experience with ESL I have had the pleasure of watching my clients gain the self confidence of being able to express them selves. It is so good to see a person understand a word for the first time. They are so eager to learn and very proud to be able to shop, and go to the doctor, and school conferences on their own. They are also eager to share their heritage and customs with us. I find that I gain as much as I give. I love my involvement with my students.

I am honored to be a small part of this program. It is run by caring administrators and with the utmost professionalism. The goals of the program are simplistic, yet realistic. The rewards to the students are not measurable by traditional standards, but are life altering. The program opens up education, job and overall better life opportunities to the students and their families. The program rewards the tutors by touching their hearts and also expanding their life experiences and even helps them learn or improve their ability to speak another language.

It is truly worthwhile and rewarding work. The clients are so appreciative of the time that volunteers spend tutoring them. They are anxious to learn English so they can communicate at work, with doctor's appointments, understand and help their children with their homework. Their are many more reasons. For the tutor there is a sense of accomplishment as the student progresses and begins to speak English.
