Marion County Literacy Council is a group of dedicated volunteers that tutor adult learners. We help adult learners reach their individual learning goals. Our learners are preparing for GED exams, learning to read or write and learn the English language. We provide this service at no cost to the learner.

From one student, one tutor, we have expanded in a few years to more than 100 tutors and students. Slowly but consistently word has spread that the Literacy Council is the instrument through which anyone with a dream to better himself/herself can, with hard work, determination and dedication achieve their goal. We have become a permanent fixture in Ocala/Marion County, proud of our achievements and successes – which are a tribute to our dedicated volunteer tutors.

Any adult interested in receiving services can contact MCLC @ (352) 690-7323 to schedule an evaluation. After the evaluation the learner is paired with a tutor and goals and meeting times are set.

"Changing Lives One Word At A Time" is what we do.

The basic skills and competencies that adults must master in order to participate fully and effectively in society include reading, writing and computation.

ABE helps people who want to improve their basic skills. There are no classrooms and everyone has their own learning plan to meet their individual needs. Tuition is free and services are confidential.

If a student would like to improve his reading, writing or spelling, be able to help his children with their homework or fill out a job application, we can help.

 

 

 

MCLC's GED program will help prepare students to take the GED examination. They will study the five sub-sections that are covered in the examination.

  • Language Arts/Writing

  • Science

  • Social studies

  • Language Arts/Reading

  • Mathematics

MCLC's GED prep tutoring provides:

Study plan based on individual need.
Individualized instruction.
Instruction in all subjects covered.
Books and materials.
Practice GED tests.

MCLC offers English classes to speakers of other languages (ESOL) at no cost to the student. We currently serve students from 14 countries who range in ability from basic literacy to advanced grammar and pronunciation.

Our classes are grouped according to ability and are scheduled throughout Marion County at various times of the day.

Class size is limited so that students can receive individualized instruction.
