    One of the best activities I've chosen since retirement is becoming a tutor of Literacy Plus. It's rewarding because I see progress. It's a wonderful program and very fulfilling.

    Participant English Conversation Circles
    In English Conversation Circles, people gain self-confidence by practicing English as their second language. The circles offer an understanding and motivating environment. No one feels judged. Everyone learns from one another. Everyone's language skills grow. Join the English Conversation Circles. I'm doing it and I love it!
