*We Train Tutors
The SLC provides training and materials for people who are interested in becoming a tutor. We offer specific trainings for English as a Second or Other Language and for Basic Reading. At this time, we do not offer trainings in teaching math, though interested tutors are welcome. Call the Literacy Office for information.

*We Promote Family Literacy. Through the "Catch ‘Em Early" program, we partner with the City of Suffolk’s Early Childhood Development Commission, Morgan Memorial Library, and Obici Hospital to provide all new mothers at Sentara Obici Hospital with a bag for parents that includes an excellent video on the benefits of reading to children early and often, a book for the child, and helpful information for the parents.
