    volunteer tutoring adults

    Sharing the Ability to Read (STAR) is a non-profit volunteer organization funded through an Adult Volunteer Literacy Grant from the Illinois Secretary of State Office, awarded to the Regional Office of Education #17 of Dewitt, Livingston, Logan, and McLean counties. STAR Adult Literacy trains and places volunteer tutors who provide English as a Second Language and Adult Basic Education instruction to adults with reading and/or math skills below the ninth-grade level. STAR recruits, tests, and matches students with trained volunteer tutors for one-on-one or small group instruction. Classes can be in-person, virtual instruction, or in a hybrid format.
