Review for Literacy Pittsburgh, Pittsburgh, PA, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

Before I retired, I looked for an activity that woul "give me a reson to get out of bed every morning". Went to a Volunteer Fair and the GPLC representative had the most interesting sales talk. I am glad that I signed up and my first student, a Telephone Conversation Partner, became a friend and we are still in touch two years after he returned to Korea. I also have met some very interesting people for counties like Uzbekistan
