Service Participants in this activity will assist with tutoring area residents who are preparing to take their GED exam.

Participants should also be patient, be able to explain effective study skills, and have a good command of written English.

NOTE: This is a new service activity and in the early stages of development. As such, participants should expect some inconsistencies in terms of residents' ability to attend GED tutoring. It is possible that on some weeks, participants in this activity will NOT engage in direct service, but rather assist with support activities for the program. Participants who are uncomfortable with this are encouraged to select a different service activity.
