Adult Literacy Program (ALP)
  Featured Learner: Marvin Nettles  
 

This program is pretty good! I like it. It helps me know how to read and write and spell. I'm learning how to read so I can read the bible.

I have been in the literacy program since November 2003 and have improved my spelling. I make every effort to learn.


 
       
Limited English Proficiency (LEP)
  Featured Learner: Alejandro Perez  
 

My name is Alejandro Perez. I’m learning more English at Watts library. I’m learning to use the Internet. I obtained my email account and now I send e-mails to my classmates. I like to work with Rosetta Stone because I can repeat the lessons again and again. I’m expending hours using Rosetta and I always get help when I don’t understand something.

My family enjoyed the programs like Halloween and Christmas. They like reading and I listen and learn from everybody at the library.

I watch videos at home and when I have questions I ask the tutor. This program helps me too much. I always practice English in the Library.

I like that the library is open more hours to learn. I am arriving to the library all the time and I expend hours using the computer. Thank you for this program.

I’ve been enrolled since last year in the literacy center. Thank you for helping me to learn more English. I didn’t know too much before but now I can understand street signs, new words, verbs and grammar. Now I can help better my daughters with their homework.

I like Rosetta program because I learn pronunciation, reading and writing too. I like to use the computers. I learned how to search with yahoo. I have my email account and now I write email too.

The library programs are wonderful for my children to learn more. Thanks for the opportunity you offered to me and to my daughters.

I enjoy learning new things with my family. Thank you for the books you gave me. We enjoy reading together and learning more everyday.
