Use your life skills and experience to help someone better their life. We need volunteer tutors who can commit to working with one learner, two hours a week, for a year. We provide twelve hours of training and all tutoring materials at no cost.
Our Adult Basic Education learners want to improve their reading and math skills in order to complete their General Education Development (GED). They are also interested in job-specific certifications like a Commercial Drivers License, Work Keys testing, and others.
Schedule is flexible based on the needs of the student and the volunteer. Given the training investment, a one year commitment is preferred.
New tutors are always needed. We expect an increased demand for our services as job seekers re-enter the economy from COVID-19.
Training available in person or online. Tutoring can take place online or in-person.

Mission Statement
We provide evidence-based learning and developmental strategies in collaboration with other organizations to help individuals reach their full potential.
Description
The Legacy Center for Community Success (TLC) was formed in 2004 by Dr. Richard Dolinski to identify outside-the-classroom barriers to education and collaborate with other organizations to provide interventions that allow all children, youth and families to flourish and thrive. TLC has four organizational units:
Literacy Services (formerly the Literacy Council of Midland County)
Early Childhood Development
Youth Development
Families
Additionally, one of TLC’s core competencies is the evaluation of program outcomes. Outcomes-based program evaluations provide multiple benefits, including a determination of whether and to what extent a program is effective in achieving its objectives.
