Read To Succeed, the community literacy collaborative in Rutherford County, will promote reading, with an emphasis on family literacy. This non-profit initiative supports literacy programs and fosters awareness of the importance of reading.
Read To Succeed hosts an Adult Literacy Program where learners from the community are paired one-on-one with volunteer tutors. Tutors are trained for 12- hours prior to tutoring. Once the pair is made, they meet approximately once a week for an hour or two each meeting. They work on learner specified goals; earning a GED, improving reading or job skills, helping their children with homework, etc.
Tutor is a very rewarding process. If you would like to become a tutor, please contact Shelly Stanley at adultliteracy@readtosucceed.org or (615) 738-7323.
