The Lake County Library System Adult Literacy Program is designed to serve limited English proficient adults and adult English language learners who are interested in improving their English skills - conversation, reading, writing, comprehension, and basic math. It is a volunteer-based program which offers one-to-one and small group tutoring to include Conversation Clubs, Citizenship classes, Reading Clubs, and Pre-GED Language Arts & Math classes.
Trained volunteer tutors and adult learners meet at the library and have access to student workbooks; adult literacy materials; a computer-based literacy lab; and other library resources. The adult learner, with the guidance of the tutor, identifies their learning goals and sets the pace to achieving them!
