Learn to Read

SBLC offers individualized instruction in basic reading and writing, at
all levels. Once the learner has reached an 8th grade level, tutoring can
continue in order to prepare him or her to take the GED (General Education,
or high school equivalency, Diploma).
English for Speakers of Other Languages
Tutoring is also available to speakers of other languages wanting to
learn English. We have a wide variety of ESOL students: some have earned
college degrees in their native country; others cannot read and write
in their native language; and others' language skills are somewhere between
these two extremes.
High Challenge
SBLC
offers High Challenge, a tutoring program for high school seniors who are in danger of
failing their final try of the Alabama High School Graduation Exam. Results
have been encouraging:
most of the seniors receiving tutoring during the first year of the program were able to graduate with their
peers. |
