The Literacy Tutoring Project is a course designed to acquaint students with potential solutions for building literacy. This is accomplished by tutoring, in a variety of settings, individuals who are at risk or homeless. This hands-on experience requires student participation in training seminars and tutoring on site for a minimum of 60 clock hours. 1-2 credit hours are available, or an individual may volunteer his or her time. Program provides tutoring in course studies taken by the students.
