READ South West is here to support adult learners from Saint John to St. Stephen and all points in between. We have volunteers currently available in Saint John, St. George and St. Stephen, as well as an off-site tutoring location in St. George. Our trained tutors meet with learners on a mutually agreed schedule and location where they work together to improve the learner's literacy and life skills.
We can help with basic literacy training, as well as specific goals like working on acquiring a GED. This is a free, one to one, confidential service offered to adults 18 years and older. We are currently recruiting for an advisory committee to help us expand the services in these areas. We are looking for 1-2 people from each of the areas listed on the right. This will require up between 2 - 4 hours monthly from January to June 0f 2025, primarily meetings via videoconference. If you know someone who could benefit from our service OR if you would like more information on the advisory committee please contact us toll-free at 1-866-633-8899. |
HOW WE HELP
Reach your literacy goals We offer free, one-to-one, confidential tutoring for individuals (ages 18 years and over) who need to upgrade their literacy and numeracy skills. Our programs are designed to work with those who have no reading ability, those seeking a GED, and those requiring ESL support, using the Laubach method of learning. |
Become a Volunteer Whether you want to become a tutor (training provided using the Laubach Method of one-to-one tutoring), help out with special events and fundraisers, join the board, or assist with administrative tasks (such as data entry, social media), we are sure we can offer you a worthwhile volunteer experience. |
