Good Morning Tutors!

Throughout these past few months, we have remained committed to supporting tutors and students. It is terrific to hear from so many tutors who are going above and beyond to support their students and Literacy DuPage during this uncertain time. We couldn’t do this work without you.  Do not hesitate to reach out if you have questions or need help with tutoring strategies during this time. Be well and take care. 

With gratitude and hope, 

Carol Garcia
