SUMMER TUTOR TRAINING FOR READ TOGETHER

Our next training for volunteer tutors for the Read Together program (tutoring kids ages 6-14) will be held June 27, 29, and July 1. The need for tutors to help kids learn to read is as high as it’s ever been. The 3-day tutor training will be held at our offices in Bath, and is limited to no more than 10 participants.

Testimonials

My son has improved more in the last year than in the previous four years in school. Without this program [Read Together], he would not be where he is.

Our two sons thoroughly look forward to their visits each week! Nathan doesn't get angry when he doesn't know a word anymore, he works through it. Jack is interested in reading independently now, which is a staggering change. [Read Together] is something my husband and I are both very grateful for having access to. We certainly wouldn't be able to afford to pay for tutoring otherwise.

For the past year and a half, I have been working with a boy in the Read Together program. Seeing his confidence grow and his progress from reading at a first grade level to almost at grade level (fifth grade) has been amazing. I truly feel this program has changed his life.
