Adult Learner support Services

Learning as an adult is much different than learning as a child. Adults have very different needs, backgrounds, skills and interests! We take all of these unique situations into account when we meet with you to determine your goals. Our adult learning programs are designed to take you from where you are right now to where you want to go, and farther! If you are looking to improve your reading, writing, or math skills, we can provide tutoring and classes that will fit your needs. We work with you each step of the way, and can help you navigate further steps such as post-secondary or other learning opportunities. Whether you want a GED, improve skills for work or just to gain more confidence in yourself, we are here to help. It is important to meet with our Coordinator to determine which program would suit you best.  Please call our office or stop by to arrange an assessment. 

individual or small group tutoring

Adults need the opportunity to learn in their own way and in their own timeframe.  If we don't have a class that fits your needs, talk to us about being matched with a tutor for free (foundational learning subjects).  We are always looking for volunteer tutors to help - no experience necessary!

free confidential assessments

It's hard to know how to get where you're going if you don't know where to start.  Our Coordinators can help you with a free assessment of your skills, so that you can make an informed plan for success.  All assessments are private and confidential and are only to allow you and the Coordinator to create an individual learning plan where YOU choose your goals. 

assistance and support

We know that asking for help can be really uncomfortable and scary.  We offer a no-judgement, safe, welcoming space where you can get the help, encouragement and confidence you need to improve your skills.  We'll be your biggest fans and celebrate every success with you!

technology assistance and access

Do you need access to a computer to practice your computer skills (typing), research job opportunities or create a resume?  Ask about booking some time in our lab to use our computers.  We'll help guide you to some great resources! 

referrals to other services

"Any door is the right door."  This is something we try to uphold daily.  If you approach us for help but it's not something we currently do, we will help you find the right service or support, and will even make some calls to connect you to the right place.  We are extremely helpful! We appreciate referrals from other agencies, too!

reducing barriers to learning

We know that many adults face barriers to learning.  Barriers can be financial, but also social, transportation, child care, time, and lack of access to technology or internet.  We aim to reduce as many barriers as possible to ensure the success of our learners.  If any of these are preventing you from taking one of our programs, please let one of our Coordinators know and we'll see how we can help.
