The Literacy Council of Rockford, Illinois teaches adults basic reading and English language skills through individual and small group instruction by trained volunteers. Students gain self-confidence and develop self-sufficiency to transform their lives as individuals, parents, workers and citizens. Success comes from the trusted bond that develops between our instructors and our students. The Literacy Council is a non-profit organization that has been serving the community since 1985 which provides highly individualized tutoring to fit the needs of over 150 students in two programs - Adult Education and English as a Second Language (ESL). |
