In addition to one-on-one tutoring, the KLC also offers groups, clubs and specialty classes to meet the needs and interests of students. These are designed to provide more instruction and study time for adult learners in ways that increase motivation and improve literacy gains.
The KLC offers basic computer and typing classes for the adult learners enrolled in basic literacy instruction. The classes are once a week for an hour and follow a proven curriculum.
The KLC offers book clubs for small groups of students who want to read for pleasure, expand their vocabulary and improve their language fluency. Books are picked by the students from a list of grade appropriate books.
This class helps students prepare for the citizenship test and prepare for the social studies test of the GED. The class follows a curriculum. Reading, writing, spelling and comprehension are a central focus of the class.
