I am president of a regional literacy coalition as well as teaching literacy and ESL in a county jail. My years of teaching experience include first language literacy (in both Englisha and Spanish) as well as second language literacy, with very beginning ESL students. Currently, my major curiosity has to do with LD issues in adult literacy programs. Our literacy coalition is working with adult ed schools, a One-Stop Center, and specialists from several LD centers to put on a workshop for tutors and others working with LD students. We are also talking about creating a network of assistance for LD learners that will include workshops for tutor training, coaching for tutor/learner pairs who need more help, and underwriting of expenses for learners who need attention of specialists. I hope this list will encourage all of us to share questions and solutions and to pose new questions.
