Access the Teacher Training Plus Project on ProLiteracy’s Website
Continue your tutor training by participating in free webinars for trained tutors. This resource from ProLiteracy provides best-practice instructional strategies. Four training areas are offered: Basic Literacy Instruction, English Language Learning, HSE Instruction, and Using Published Materials.
Webinars are about an hour long, and in follow-up, optional small-group coaching is available, as well as handouts and slide presentations. Webinars in each area are listed by date, and past webinars are also available for viewing.
Tutors must log in to their ProLiteracy account to access the webinars. Please let Wendy or Jane know if you need the Literacy Council’s membership number when creating an account.
