Reading Help Builds Confidence in Frederick County Tutors
Patrick Beverly, with tutor Barbara Little at Gov. Thomas Johnson High School, learns phonics and spelling in an adult literacy program run by the Frederick County Literacy Council. The council estimates about 20,000 county adults lack functional reading or English skills, fueling tutor demand and undiminished need for literacy support. Beverly began in September at a third grade level, aiming to improve job applications and a CDL test, yet recently stopped attending.
