You may have noticed in the Newsletter, or on the board just outside Read On, that we will be getting some renovations done.  These renovations are to start on August 1 and last for at least three weeks.  If they run into problems (delays in receiving carpeting, furniture, etc.) they will take until the end of the month.
We can't wait to unveil the new and improved Read On space!

Read On relies on adult volunteers (18+) to tutor adult students one-on-one or in small groups.  Student goals may include:  reading, writing, speaking or listening skills, studying for their Canadian Citizenship or driving license, or ESL Conversation Classes. Our students are either Adult Basic Education (fluent in English but need help with reading and writing) or English Language Learners.
Volunteers will complete 6.5 hours of Tutor Training prior to being assigned a student. Once a student is assigned, they meet for approximately one hour per week.
Time commitment for being a Read On Volunteer is: 6.5 hours of initial training, 1 hour per week of tutoring, approximately 15 – 30 minutes per week to prepare for lessons and complete required statistics. We would ask that you be able to volunteer with Read On for a minimum of 6 months.
If you would like to register as a volunteer please call Read On staff at 403-320-4977 or 403-330-3313 or

Upcoming 2017 Tutor Training dates are Saturday, September 16, and Saturday, November 18

 
Students, please fill out this Student Survey.  You will be asked questions about the class you have finished, or about how your tutor has been helping you.  

If you need help please call 403-320-4977 or 403-330-3313.
