  • 37 people are interested

Project B.E.S.T is a collaborative project between the Tarrant Literacy Coalition and White Settlement ISD for adult learners who want to improve their high school level reading, writing and math skills as they prepare for the high school equivalency exam (HiSET or GED). Volunteers are needed on Tuesdays for individual and small group reading and writing and also Thursdays for individual math tutoring and small group math instruction. Classes those days are 5:30pm to 8:00pm. Our goal is to lead adult learners to improved competency in math, reading, writing, and critical thinking and to prepare them to pass the HiSET exam so they can earn their certificate of High School Equivalency. Tarrant Literacy Coalition provides training and resources for our volunteers.
