New Tutor Orientation

​

This is an overview of the Literacy Green Bay Tutor Orientation to help guide you through the process and requirements.

 

Step 1. Fill out the volunteer application and send it to Carleen Jeanquart. Before the first workshop visit the Literacy Green Bay Office to receive your materials and pay the $25 training fee. This fee covers the materials and trainer for the workshops.

 

Step 2. Before each workshop, watch the online videos and read any material listed below. This pre work allows for in depth discussion when we meet together in person.

 

Step 3. The in-person sessions are held in the Learning Center at Literacy Green Bay. We will meet on Tuesday, Thursday, and the following Tuesday evening from 6:00-8:00 pm. There is a lot to cover, so we do like to start promptly at 6:00.
