My Nonprofit Reviews

Literacy Green Bay is a wonderful place to volunteer. Staff is very supportive and training program is fun and very informative. I am not a teacher, but I speak and read English so I can teach that. It is a job that gives back 100 times. Clients in classes and in 1:1 tutoring. are so appreciative, and it is fun and gratifying to see success in their adaptation to life in the U.S. I have been especially rewarded as students I am working with get their citizenship. Literacy Green Bay is very important in our community and everyone is welcome!

I have been a tutor for about 20 years at Literacy Green Bay. Having not been a teacher, I was unsure of my value to students initially. However, the friendships with students from many different countries and the support of the staff have made me feel of value in this volunteer opportunity. I am always happy to share my experiences with others in the hope they may want to experience what I have. Literacy Green Bay, its staff and volunteers provides a valuable contribution to the community.

I have had several students over the years I have tutored. I have enjoyed each one and have probably learned as much as I have taught. I am always impressed by their desire to learn, their work ethic and close family ties. I was never a teacher, but feel comfortable with the materials supplied and the support of Literacy Green Bay staff who have great expertise. My most memorable time was helping someone attain their citizenship and going with her for the test and then to take the oath of citizenship with her and her family. The work that is done at Literacy Green Bay is amazing!
