The Rowan County Literacy Council will hold a four-session tutor training workshop starting on Jan. 23 in the Stanback Room of the Rowan Public Library.
The first session is from 7 until 9 p.m. and will cover the literacy program and the role of volunteer tutors in helping adults to read or to learn English as a second language. At the end of this orientation, participants will have the opportunity to sign up for the next three sessions to be held on Jan. 28 and 30 from 5:30 to 9 p.m. and Feb. 2 from 8:30 a.m. to 1 p.m. The registration fee for these three sessions is $25 to cover the cost of materials.
In order to be certified as a tutor, participants must attend all four sessions.
Reservations for the Jan. 23 orientation may be made by calling the literacy office at 704-216-8266 or by emailing rclc@rowancountync.gov. Make your reservation by Jan. 17
Adults 16 years and older who need help with reading or learning English can also call the literacy office for information on our program.
