Project Literacy Kelowna - (250) 762-2163

Project Literacy provides free language and math tutoring for adults.

We match learners with trained volunteer tutors in order to provide free one-on-one English and Math literacy tutoring

Our community of tutors is comprised of university students, teachers, professionals, trades people, and retired persons. Many have English as a Second Language training and experience. During recent years, we have found that the caliber of our English tutors and Math tutors continues to improve steadily – matching increasingly complex learner needs.

All our tutors receive training and on-going support to ensure they have the necessary tools to help learners achieve their personal, academic or vocational goals.

At any one time we have more than 100 active tutor/learner matches.

The ability to communicate with fellow citizens, keep a job or secure a new one, enroll in higher education or overcome a dependency on social assistance, have been important milestones achieved by many of our learners.

Project Literacy learners receive assistance with:
• Basic reading, writing and math skills;
• English as an Additional Language;
• Language Proficiency Index (LPI) testing;
• GED and specific grade preparation;
• Employment specific terminology;
• Trades math entrance exams;
• Apprenticeship training materials;
• Preparation for post-secondary courses;
• Skills upgrading for employment enhancement;
• Job application forms, citizenship preparation, and much more!
