Tutor Laurie with Learner Janie

Change Someone’s Future

Bridge the language gap by tutoring an adult in English! As a volunteer tutor, you will teach an adult to communicate so that they can do what most of us take for granted: make doctor appointments, go grocery shopping, speak with their children’s teachers, and so many other essential everyday tasks.

As a Literacy DuPage tutor, you will join a family of over 300 volunteers, who create lesson plans, share ideas, and forge friendships while strengthening our community’s ability to reach those who are motivated to enhance their English language skills. You will find yourself in a rewarding place: empowering adults with the life-changing benefits of literacy.

To learn how you can be part of this critical work - and why it matters so much in DuPage County - attend a new volunteer Meet & Greet. We will explain what it takes to be a tutor (in short, no prior experience - just a genuine desire to help) and how we will prepare you to teach English that will improve a life, one conversation at a time.

Sign up for a virtual Meet & Greet with Literacy DuPage to learn more about becoming a tutor. You can sign up through Giving DuPage, our website (https://literacydupage.org/volunteer/register-orientation), by phone (630-942-5210), or by email (info@literacydupage.org). We look forward to meeting you!

*Volunteers must live in DuPage County, Illinois, and must be fully vaccinated with the COVID-19 vaccine*
