The Rowan Literacy Council has just completed a Laubach workshop for new tutors. The workshop was conducted by trainers Clyde Harriss, Dot Hurley, Phyllis Martin and Carolyn Myers.
The training is for non-professional people who would like to help others improve their reading skills or teach English as a Second Language to foreign-born residents.
Tutors completing the 13-hour course were: Robert Bowman, Mary Lynn Connor, Melissa Craig, Angela Murphy and Becky Yancey.
The Literacy Council offers tutoring services to any adult 16 and older. Anyone wanting to register for the next workshop or to receive tutoring should call the Literacy Office at 704-216-8266.
The Literacy Council is a Rowan County United Way Agency.
