Gateway Community Action Partnership’s Literacy Services Department will conduct a Literacy Volunteers tutor training session in Vineland beginning October 9.  Pre-registration is required. Trained tutors will work one-on-one with adult learners who need help reading, writing, or speaking English.

  The training course will be held Wednesday afternoons from 12:30 to 3:30 p.m. at Inspira Monarch Family Success Center, 1038 E. Chestnut Avenue, Suite 235, Vineland.Class dates are October 9, 16, 23, 30 and November 6.

  The training is free and open to the public, but tutor trainees must attend at least four of the five sessions to graduate and become certified to tutor. Makeup classes are also available online.  Tutors will be trained in ESL and basic literacy and must be willing to tutor in Cumberland or Salem counties.
