Do you like to meet new friends from other countries? Help adults practice English speaking skills in a fun and relaxed setting. Our Conversation Cafe group meets on Saturday mornings, 9:30-11am.

Volunteer on rotation with other tutors--on average, one or two Saturdays per month. Additional volunteer opportunities exist on weeknights. Knowing languages other than English is not necessary.

If interested, please contact us today for more information on training you can do online from home, or at a handful of locations in the City of Chicago.

1010 W. Lake St. Suite 603b, Oak Park, IL 60301, US

Mission Statement

We help adults in western Cook County improve literacy and English skills so they can experience a greater quality of life in family, workplace, and community.

Description

Established as a 501(c)(3) non-profit agency in 1987, LVWCC provides free customized literacy instruction to adults in suburban Cook County through a network of trained volunteers.

We are a local grassroots initiative driven by neighbors helping one another on a personal level. Many adults who make the decision to return to school lack the basic literacy and academic skills to succeed in the classroom. That's where we can help. Our learners receive private and small group instruction with caring attention and personalized learning plans. At LVWCC, we are literally changing lives.
