Welcome to Episode 1 of season 12! Today’s episode is in honour of Adult Learners’ Week, which takes place every year during the first week of April. Adult Learners' Week recognizes the perseverance and achievements of adult learners who may be returning to school or learning a new skill, while juggling other commitments. To celebrate, Jessica speaks with three people from The Learning Exchange, a not-for-profit literacy organization in Laval that provides free tutoring services and programs to adult learners. Enza Ciampanelli, the Community Manager, and Mie and Malena, two of the organization’s volunteer tutors, share their experiences working with adult learners.
