This training series identifies core knowledge, skills, and abilities volunteer tutors in the UW-Madison Tutor Training Certificate Program need to work effectively with their learners. While attendance is required for Certificate Program participants, we recommend that all tutors take advantage of this training to hone their teaching skills and develop strategies that empower English Language Learners to communicate more successfully at home, at work, and in the community. Tutors who choose not to complete the Certificate Program can still attend any workshops they feel will be beneficial to them. Tutors who are interested in receiving the Tutor Training Certificate must 1) attend six sessions or complete 9 hours of training over two semesters, and 2) present a lesson plan demonstration during the last session.
