Adult Learners
Newport/Mesa ProLiteracy offers one-on-one tutoring and small group classes free of charge. To be eligible for a tutor you must:
- Be at least 18 years of age
- Live or work in the Newport Beach area
- Be able to speak English
- Commit at least one year to working with your tutor at least 1 hour per week.
To become part of the literacy program, contact the Literacy Office at 949.717.3874; email us at literacy@city.newport-beach.ca.us or stop by for an application.
After you apply:
Every potential adult learner must attend a new learner orientation.
The next orientation is:
January 18 , 2012 at 6 P.M.
Newport Beach Central Library
Space is limited so a reservation is a must.
Once you have attended the orientation, you will be asked to take a skills evaluation. The evaluation will help us determine the best tutor to match you with.
Please understand that our tutors are all volunteers and that there are many adults waiting to be assigned a tutor. Please be patient and we will match you with your tutor as soon as we can.
