How to become a Student

At Clay County Literacy Coalition, we will offer you the opportunity to improve your everyday living skills through reading, writing, conversation and other methods of learning. Your tutor will be someone who has been trained to tutor, who enjoys working with others, and wants to help you learn. You and your tutor will decide on a program based on your needs and desires.  How long it will take will depend on what your goals are and the time you have to study.
