This semester the University Settlement Adult Literacy Program was lucky enough to have a few students from the Masters in Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages program at New York University as tutors. They helped some of our beginning students get extra practice in listening, speaking, reading, and writing outside of their regular ESOL classes. Thank you so much, Natalia, Allison, Ye, Shuwan, and Junfeng!
Above is a “greatest hits” video from last spring’s Literacy Review Celebration at NYU. You will find the Adult Literacy Program’s own Tammie Tai at the 3:01 mark!
The Literacy Review is an annual journal of writing from adult literacy programs throughout New York City. Edited by NYU Gallatin students, the book is distributed at a celebration that includes readings by the newly published writers.
The faculty adviser for the Literacy Review is Professor June Foley, who teaches an advanced writing class here at University Settlement on Fridays. To learn more about the Literacy Review, click here.
