Review for Literacy Pittsburgh, Pittsburgh, PA, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

I am a 59 year old retired RN who had no previous training in tutoring. The skilled and friendly staff at GPLC made tutoring possible and enjoyable for me through their excellent hands on teaching program and their constant, steady support. My students and I have a staff person who responds whenever we have a question. We are quite fond of her. Over the almost 2 years that I have been working with my 2 students my life has been enriched greatly and we have become good friends.I recommend this organization highly for the integrity of it's staff and goals.

What I've enjoyed the most about my experience with this nonprofit is...

I received much more than I gave. I learned so much about my students' culture and country that I never could have learned in any other way.

The kinds of staff and volunteers that I met were...

enthusiastic, knowledgeable, generous and kind.

If this organization had 10 million bucks, it could...

reach more people who need this help to improve their lives.
