Want to get to know people from other countries?

Want to help the improve their English skills?

Literacy Volunteers & St. Lawrence University Students have developed and piloted a program to bring SLU students and new English speakers together for informal conversation.

You do NOT have to know how to speak another language to participate!

Time commitments: After a mandatory training session, volunteers meet with their students as schedules permit.

Transportation is preferred, but not required--will explore carpooling possibilities.
