The Adult Education component is designed to extend basic education skills. More than just an academic, GED preparation, work-focused or ESL program, a family literacy adult education class teaches adults at all levels and abilities to:
- Think critically and creatively
- Solve problem
- Set goals and achieve them
- Acquire successful interpersonal skills
Family literacy instructional methods combine the more traditional individualized and tutor-assisted study with active learning. An adult education teacher often employs peer collaboration, balancing both large and small groups.
