A few words from our learners
“Before Tri-County Literacy Council I was not confident that I could go back to school, because I was not that good in school when I was younger. Now, I know I can do it!”
-Roxanne Dicaire
“When I started the course, I thought I would only be there for one day. To my surprise, I stayed until the end. I find my confidence has gone up. I spoke much more and participated, when I usually remain quiet and shy. I was pleasantly surprised at how much I enjoyed this course and wish it was a little longer. Try it. You’ll like it!”
-Susie Kos
“I decided to call Tri-County Literacy Council to try and take the 5-week Grocery Clerk/Store Shelf Stocker course. I enjoyed every minute. And, I graduated with a diploma.”
