Partner Assisted Learning (PAL)

Program Description

Based in Williams Lake, PAL is a community partnership program designed to provide one-to-one adult literacy tutoring to the city and surrounding areas.  PAL is located at the Williams Lake Campus of Thompson Rivers University and supports up to 20 adults, from non-readers to Grade 12 level, who have challenges with classroom, online courses, or with the literacy skills needed for everyday life.  Scheduling is arranged to suit the learner and the tutoring focuses on their individual needs.  Support is also available for those with ESL challenges.  The program is free of charge and all inquiries are confidential.  Contact Shirley-Pat Gale, PAL Coordinator, at 250.392.8161 for more information.  PAL is run by the Cariboo Chilcotin Partners for Literacy Society in partnership with TRU and the Ministry of Advanced Education and Labour Market Development.
