Description/Mission:
Literacy Volunteers provides free basic Reading and ESL (English as a Second Language) tutoring to
adults in Cibola County. They also provide family literacy support, pre-GED and GED support services.
Student Service Learning Opportunities:
Service Learners can receive training to tutor ESL, reading, and/or math literacy to adults in the area.
There is also an opportunity to do tutoring/literacy projects with young children whose parents are
receiving ESL tutoring on Mondays from 5pm to 8pm. (this would not require the extensive training
that adult tutoring would require.)

The entire training is 18 hours total. It is flexible as to how these hours are distributed- Barbara
is willing to adapt to Student Learner's schedules.
Number of Service Learning Students Needed: Open
Hours of Operation When Students are Needed: Varies
