Agency Details:

LVM-Stoughton

We are a volunteer organization that provides one-on-one tutoring for ESOL students and Basic Literacy students. We work with students from all the towns that include Stoughton and surround it.

Description:
We require that each potential tutor go through an 18 hour training, 6-3 hour sessions. These trainings are scheduled several times yearly and we try to accommodate both people who can only come at night and those who prefer daytime. We also request a commitment of 9 to 12 months. After the potential tutor has gone through training, he/she is matched with a student to tutor. We encourage the meetings to take place at the library, especially because of the access to our resources.

History:
Our program began in 1998 at the Stoughton Library because of the foresight of the director of the library. We now have grown from a handful of tutors to a group of more than 70. We welcome both Basic Literacy and ESOL students. There is a great need for both programs because we draw applicants from most of the surrounding communities.
