Resources Available

I had a question in Tutor Training about the resources available in the Project Read Office. The commnent was made that most tutors do not have time to come in and spend a lot of time sifting through the (literally) thosands of materials available to tutors. Don't worry! We understand, and we have tried to do a lot of the work for you.

Each month in our newsletter, The Candlestick, we spotlight a different material resource that is available to our tutors. Some are online resources, but the majority of the spotlights are about books or manuals available in our office. You can click here to go to the Material Spotlights page of our web site and view all the spotlights since 2003. Unfortunately, we do not yet have a topical list available, but you can click on the year and it will then bring up a list of the spotlights for each month (including the title of the resource). If you click on that link, it will take you to a brief description of the resource.

We hope this helps! If you find a resource you are interested in using, please just ask a Project Read staff member and we will be happy to direct you to the resource on our shelf. Happy tutoring!
