People who have difficulty with the written word, either reading or writing, use many strategies to survive in this world of signs, directions and forms along with newspapers, manuals, books and the internet.
?
At Sunshine Coast Libraries, there is support available ? free to eligible participants ? provided by trained volunteer tutors.
?
Library and Gallery Services Manager, Ross Duncan said functional literacy was a basic right of everyone and an essential skill to enable individuals to play active roles in their communities. ?
?
?Our trained tutors provide invaluable support and assistance to adults learning to read and write in a welcoming, friendly and non-judgemental environment,? he said.
?
Spaces are available now in both one-on-one and classroom situations.? This program is offered at Caloundra, Kawana, Beerwah, Maleny, Noosa and Cooroy Libraries. ?
?
Support is also available for people who have English as a second language (ESL) and who wish to improve their English speaking and writing skills.? An English conversation class is also held weekly at Maroochydore Library.
