STAR Adult Literacy

from Denise Ng

I’ve had the pleasure of serving as an English tutor for 2 adult women during the past year. Both women are eager to improve their English language skills while living and working in Bloomington with their families. The basic commitment is to meet with them once a week for an hour either in person (in designated public meeting places) or virtually. STAR Adult Literacy Program provides all the needed English as a second language materials and training so that you can be successful. One of my students recently passed her test to become an American citizen which brought her great joy and I was happy to be a part of her reaching this important milestone. The program is always in need of more volunteers so if you have a few hours a week I encourage you to look into volunteering with STAR. Julie is a pleasure to work with (in addition to being from the great small town I grew up in!).
