Mason County Literacy needs north-end tutors Mason County Literacy is hoping to expand its literacy programs in North Mason. In order to expand the program, though, volunteers will be needed to help adult learners in the Beffair area. The group's literacy volunteers help in one of two ways. They may work with people who are learning English in the English as a Second Language (ESL) program co-spon- sored by Mason County Literacy and Olympic College. They may also work one-on-one with adult learners who want to get a high-school equiv- alency by obtaining a GED. Mason County Literacy provides training for tutors in both the GED and ESL programs. For anyone interested in tutoring ESL students, the Olympic College instructor for the ESL class provides guidance, advice and teaching ma- terials to the tutors. The Olympic College class is held every week at the Belfair Boys and Girls Club from 6 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. on Mondays and Wednesdays. THE OLYMPIC College instruc- tor can use volunteers to assist her in teaching the students who have varying skill levels in English. The adult learners enrolled in the liter- acy program come from all over the world, including Russia, Vietnam, Morocco, Mexico and Guatemala.
