Hi! If you are interested in getting your GED, you should call Friends of Literacy at 594-1507. It will help if we can ask you a few questions about how long you’ve been out of school, what part of Knox County you live in, and what type of classroom setting interests you. Hope to hear from you soon!

Renie,
We have multiple opportunities for volunteers to tutor adults learning to read all the way through working to earn their GED, as well as English Language Learners. Please continue on to the volunteer page on our website and fill out the application. The link will send your application directly to me and I will put you on the update list for volunteer training class notification. The next class will be in late October.
Thanks for your interest in helping adults learn!!!

After my second year of college, I spent five years as an English teacher in Russia and Ukraine. Now I’m back in the US continuing my studies at UT. I am particularly interested in teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages, although I would also be interested in learning to teach adults to read or helping with other skills.
