    Description

    Share your Love of Reading- Tutor an Adult Learner

    One in six Yolo County residents cannot read and write sufficiently to carry out day-to-day activities at work and home. Adult literacy tutors provide one-on-one tutoring to an adult in their community. Tutors assist adult learners to meet their personal reading and writing goals such as reading to their children, completing a written driver license exam, creating a resume or acquiring new computer skills.

    We currently have adults in West Sacramento waiting for a tutor.

    Training, support and materials are provided by Yolo Reads staff.

    Yolo Reads is a free program of the Yolo County Library.

    The Yolo County Library is specifically looking for volunteer tutors who reside in Northern California. This is a virtual volunteer opportunity.

    *MUST BE A RESIDENT OF YOLO COUNTY OR IMMEDIATE SURROUNDING COUNTIES (SACRAMENTO, SOLANO, etc.)
