ORGANIZATION: Greenville Literacy Association, Inc.

  • 45 people are interested

The Greer Learning Center of GLA is looking for volunteers to help the international members of the Greer area learn English as a Second Language.

In the program, adult English students are divided into different level classes, and tutors teach level-appropriate materials.

Tutors help English language learners with new vocabulary, phrases, and conversation skills.

After observing classes and participating in a volunteer orientation/training workshop, tutors work with students for 1 1/2 - 2 hours a week. Volunteers do not need prior teaching experience or foreign language skills to help someone learn to speak English.

The center offers daytime and evening classes.

Mission Statement

Greenville Literacy Association’s mission is to enrich our community by increasing the literacy and employability of our citizens.

Description

GLA was founded more than fifty years ago when a group of community leaders realized that there had to be solutions to the problem of adult under-education. Today the Association is one of the largest community-based literacy programs in South Carolina and one of the most highly developed in the nation. Hundreds of trained volunteer tutors and small group instructors are active in the agency's programs, literally changing lives in a very positive way. GLA serves the community through two earning centers in Greenville and Simpsonville, and through partnerships in Greer, West Greenville and the Berea area.
