Volunteers

Interest in helping?

Photo: VolunteersThanks to the efforts of many volunteers the program has been very successful.

If you would like to volunteer as a tutor, please call the local Centre for more information.

All it takes is a willingness to help others and a few hours each week. We provide the training and resources.

Tutor training workshops are held every two to three months.

Tutor Training Objectives

  • to present the Adult Learning Centres’ philosophy which advocates a learner-centred approach
  • to emphasize that learning does not usually take place "in a straight line" and varies among individuals
  • to convey that the tutor and learner are forming a learning partnership in which they work together towards common goals
  • to provide tutors with practical techniques or approaches they can use to help learners improve their reading, writing and numeracy skills
  • to inform tutors of their responsibilities and the many supports and resources that are available to them
