Mission Statement
Community Partners in Literacy is dedicated to providing all adult residents of Manitowoc County with an affordable, person centered literacy experience that encourages the understanding of basic English language skills including listening, speaking, reading, and writing. Participants will be empowered to seek out new opportunities involving their family, work, and community life.
Coordinated by the Manitowoc Public Library and Manitowoc County UW-Extension
Description
We envision all residents of Manitowoc County having the opportunity to learn listening, speaking, reading, and writing skills in English.
Students are evaluated to determine their English skill level. You could be the trained tutor that uses our materials in a one-on-one learning experience to assist the student with reading, writing, speaking, and/or listening skills.
You don't have to be a teacher, or had been the smartest in class. We provide all the training. You just bring your positive helping attitude!
