Adult Learning Program

The Adult Learning Program at Literacy Mid-South has provided education services to adults for almost 50 years.

Small Group Tutoring

We offer tutoring for adults who would like to improve their reading and writing skills, digital literacy skills, and for non-native English speakers who would like to improve their English skills. We match a group of 2-4 adults based on goals and level. When adults learn together they have peer support and motivate each other to continue their learning. A volunteer will facilitate small group learning using collaborative learning strategies focusing on interest-based learning.

Become a Learner

We offer tutoring for adults in reading, math, computers/technology, and English language learning.

You can meet with a small group of other adult learners at a library close to you. Groups will be no more than 5 people, all around the same level so you can support each other in your learning.

Sessions will be 1-2 times a week for 45 minutes to an hour.  Call 901-201-6157 to make an intake appointment. Your intake appointment will take about 2 hours. There is a one-time $10 fee, then all tutoring is free. 

Thank you for joining the Literacy Mid-South family!
