Children’s Literacy Center’s (CLC) mission is to build a life of success through a foundation of literacy…..ONE child at a time. CLC works with families and the community to provide an effective literacy program that helps the struggling reader become a successful reader. Through one-to-one tutoring, each student gets personalized tutoring with long-lasting results. Tutors help their students by providing patience, support, and, in turn, increasing the students’ self-confidence. CLC’s program, together with tutors, can create successful readers…..ONE child at a time.
Our program teaches phonetic skills and learning strategies appropriate for all elementary reading programs. Each lesson plan provides step-by-step instructions allowing anyone, from classroom volunteers to reading teachers, to work with a student without preparation. Because of its accessibility, our reading curriculum fits well in any school reading group, one-to-one instruction, or community learning center.
