Research shows that an adult with one-on-one tutoring can raise his/her reading level two full grades with just 80 hours of tutoring and can increase his earning power over 40%.

English is often a language barrier for persons who have immigrated to the United States, Missouri and even Montgomery County. In an effort to assist this population, the Literacy Council will use local volunteers to set up and coordinate English As A Second Language classes. Contact the Literacy Council today if you would like more information for yourself or someone you know.

Volunteer Tutors Needed
The council consists of volunteers in Montgomery County and surrounding areas. Make a difference in another adult's life. We’ll give you the training you need and the scheduling is flexible!


The Literacy Council is funded solely by local contributions and grants.
