Gateway Community Action Partnership’s Literacy Services Department will conduct three Literacy Volunteers tutor training sessions this fall.  Pre-registration is required. Trained tutors will work one-on-one with adult learners who need help reading, writing, or speaking English.

  A Vineland class will be held 5 Wednesday mornings from 9:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. at Inspira Family Success Center, 1038 E. Chestnut Ave., Suite 235 Vineland, NJ beginning September 13.

  A Carneys Point class will be held 5 Friday mornings from 9:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. at Salem Community College, 460 Hollywood Ave., Carneys Point New Jersey beginning September 22.

  A Bridgeton class will be held Monday and Wednesday evenings from 6 to 9 p.m. at Gateway Community Action Partnership, 110 Cohansey St., Bridgeton beginning October 23.

  Residents of Cumberland and Salem counties can register for any training.

  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. Tutors will be trained in ESL and basic literacy.

  Gateway has provided literacy services in Cumberland and Salem counties for the past 21 years and is accredited by Literacy New Jersey and ProLiteracy. Trained tutors generally meet one to two hours per week with learners.
