    Most of us take it for granted that we can read a restaurant menu, read a prescription bottle…read morelabel, write a check, understand a street sign, or sign up to vote. The people who seek out this amazing non-profit program cannot, and wish to do so! Project Second Chance, or PSC for short, is the Contra Costa County Library Adult Literacy Program. They offer free, confidential, one-on-one basic literacy instruction for adults -- both native English speakers and ESL/ELL speakers -- who read and/or write below a 6th grade level. This is done thanks to volunteer tutors. They also have volunteer tutors who use the Wilson Reading System (similar to the Barton Reading System) and work with adults who believe that they are dyslexic (FYI: no formal diagnosis may be performed at PSC). I sought out this program to help my friend -- and I ended up training to become a tutor : ) Their two-day Saturday/Sunday 9 a.m. - 3 p.m. training session prepares volunteers to teach basic reading and writing skills to native English speakers and ESL/ELL speakers using the Challenger Series and the Voyager Series. Their once-every-six-months Saturday 9 a.m. - 3 p.m. training session prepares a small group of volunteers to use the Wilson Reading System to teach those who believe they are dyslexic. Located in a building just behind the Pleasant Hill Library and connected through a series of hallways, the small staff does the training sessions, answers telephone calls, provides space for tutors and students to meet, and works on the logistics of the PSC program. Potential students come to the Pleasant Hill office -- or the office in Antioch or in Hercules -- to sit down for an intake assessment to match their needs with the right tutor. Inside the Pleasant Hill Library, they have a designated PSC computer lab with a plethora of literacy resources at students' and tutors' disposal, such as Lexia, Ultimate Phonics, Rosetta Stone, and many, many more. There are a ton of hard copies of resources in the PSC office itself as well. Tutors and students can access NewsForYou, an easy to read newspaper, and they even publish their own book of students' poetry. *Tip: ANY ADULT can sign up to be a tutor -- and they are *always* looking for tutors! *Tip: ANYONE who is over the age of 16 and out of high school and who can speak English well enough to talk on the phone or in person can sign up for the program.

    Our child loved ELA and Math tutoring. The teacher's attention and character, along with the…read moreevidence-based curriculum, have shown good academic results. Highly recommend!

    I had been thinking about putting my kid there for a while. then a sudden passing of my autistic…read morechild's father suddenly, made me postpone our first session until recently. Guess what, the Director of Lanies Learning and the school associated didn't really care about my kid learning Math. Even though it was a bit sketchy how they charged me more because I won a district settlement and charged me the "district rate" vs. the cheaper family rate, although both come with the same work involved. I questioned that at our final meeting. So here I come on the first day all the way from Piedmont to Concord, and I barely get a "hello" and no official introduction to anyone or condolences. I had to ask for a little sit down before my kid went the tutor. Then when I picked him up, I peaked at where she was having the tutoring of multi-sensory tutoring, and he was on the floor w/ many desks all around him, squished. When I brought this up to the Director in an email. She was so offended, she tore up my check she said and would give me that lesson for free. She apparently didn't like me questioning what I saw or what I expected from a "round up" after a first session. I was so excited too, but it seemed it was about conforming and not asking too many questions, than really helping my child. We since got a very amazing tutor who is amazing and trained in the exactly what he needed. I was saddened that the Director of this center and the Core Academy that it is associated with would treat a widow this way. So disappointed that they acted in such a way, after they accepted my kid, then said "he wasn't a good fit," after I had a few questions about the first session. Then to make matters worse, they let him go and tore up my check as they let me know in an email. How cruel. I really hope they don't respond, but it did happen and nothing they say, will make it ok. accept an apology.
