Review for South Bay Literacy Council, Torrance, CA, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

The South Bay Literacy Council teaches English to adults. The Council has three programs: Literacy for English Speakers, English as a Second Language, and Computer Aided Literacy. All services are free and the Council has no paid staff.

Seeing students improve all their English skills

If I had to make changes to this organization, I would...

try to serve more students

Role:  Board Member & I have tutored in all three progams of the Council, and I am currently the VP of Computer Aided Literacy.
