The Students
The students are limited English speaking parents of young children. They come to the program to learn:

The Tutors
Volunteer tutors work with parents one-on-one or in small groups. Tutors must be competent readers and writers of English. Tutors meet with their students 2 hours per week at Oak View Branch Library.
