“I learned that I am smart and that if I try hard, I can do it.”
Grade 2 Ready Set Learn Program Participant
“I learned to read at the age of 63. I realized I could not read enough to help my children with their homework. This realization brought me pain and shame the most. I gave up on many things because there was a form to complete or a complaint to write or instructions to read. I had not fooled everyone and it was a relief to admit it. For two years, twice a week, we [Free Literacy Tutor and Terry] met and I could see the change in myself. Old hurts from past experiences will remain but overcoming them has been a blessing. I am no longer afraid of a piece of paper with words on it and most of all, I enjoy reading very much.”
Terry Affleck, 65
