Mission Statement

Helping our community one word at a time. Since 1969, the San Gabriel Valley Literacy Council has provided small group English language and citizenship classes for adult learners in Pasadena and the surrounding communities. We serve a diverse group of people from around the world, helping them to become more effective and involved parents, workers, and active members of society.

Description

The San Gabriel Valley Literacy Council is
an all-volunteer organization. Our English and citizenship classes are led by a dedicated team of teachers and assistants. We work with adult students who come from all over the world.

Previous teaching experience is not required. We provide all our volunteers with comprehensive training that includes:

  • Principles of ESL/EFL instruction
  • Introduction to textbooks and exercises
  • Tips and techniques
  • Basics of online instruction
  • Mentoring and support from current teachers
Following the training sessions, new volunteers may lead classes that fit as much as possible their personal schedules while meeting the needs of our students
