Shot of the day:
FortWayne.Education tutor, Jean, with her ESL (English as a Second Language) students from Crime Victim Care of Allen County.
Jean is a retired English teacher – having taught high school and college courses – and we know she’s the perfect person to guide these students on their exciting journey.
There’s nothing like the smell of just-opened books!
This shipment of Laubach Way to Reading program books just arrived and will be headed out tomorrow for the first class of our group ESL (English as a Second Language) program for Crime Victim Care of Allen County.
We’re excited to advance our partnership with this amazing agency and we know the tutors and the students are about to embark on an amazing journey.
We’re pleased to share with you two screenshots from our mobile application for Android that’s currently in the works.
The project is part of a two-semester long assignment students at theIndiana University–Purdue University Fort Wayne (IPFW) Computer Science department are working on.
The IPFW students are handling the programming, while our intern (also from IPFW), Melinda, has supplied the graphic work.
The application will allow volunteer to schedule appointments, check their e-mail, and log hours.
We love technology.
Starting this month, select FortWayne.Education courses in Health, Nutrition, English language skills, and more will be available on-line.
What started as a program to provide grammar brush-up courses to our tutors and students at the Carriage House has become a platform capable of providing our services to our partners throughout the city.
