    Description

    Help an Adult Pass the GED Test: Become a GED/HiSET Tutor!

    Help an adult prepare for their GED/HiSet Exam!

    We are looking for motivated individuals who can provide one-to-one tutoring to an adult and help prepare them for the GED or HiSET exam. Tutors may choose to tutor in the areas of Reading/Writing, Math, or other subject area as needed.

    No experience in tutoring is required.

    Volunteers should be able to:

    • tutor at least once a week (1-2 hours each session)
    • commit to a minimum of 6 months or longer
    • complete a training process before the start of your tutoring
    • participate in meetings (every 6-8 weeks) to reinforce your tutoring skills and learn new program information
    • regularly check your email

    Requirements to apply:

    • 18 or older
    • read, write, and speak English clearly
    • have basic computer skills

    Once you have completed the training, you will be matched with a learner based on your time availability. Tutoring will take place at the library.

    Basic learning materials are provided to both learners and tutors free of charge.

    The literacy staff will provide you with assistance and support throughout the program.

    Join the Placentia Library District’s Adult Literacy Program and make a difference in someone’s life!
