Judith Charari is a large fan of the Manatee Literacy Council. She placed her daughters into this system after the Chararis left Colombia in 2004 for reasons of family and protection. Judith Charari didn’t have time for English classes herself returned then. She and her husband, Ciro, have been elevating their daughters and working to pay for their college training.
The Charari children are Manatee Literacy Council’s success testimonies. Daughter Sandra, a picture clothier, worked with a Manatee Literacy Council tutor for five years. She graduated from Manatee High School and the University of South Florida and became a U.S. Citizen in 2018. In the hospitality enterprise, Daughter Tania worked with a Literacy Council show for three years. She graduated from Manatee High and USF. Their daughter Diana graduated from a university in Colombia. She works within the meals carrier industry and meets weekly together with her Literacy Council education.
The Manatee Literacy Council enables non-English speakme adults by education volunteers to emerge as licensed tutors. The tutors are matched with inexperienced persons for one-on-one weekly classes. Judith Charari says, “I want to apprehend my grandchildren. I need to grow to be a citizen. I want an instruction.” She will wait. Judith is one in every sixty-nine Manatee newbies in need of a teacher. “We are constantly looking for tutors,” stated Lillian Santiago-Bauza, Manatee Literacy Council’s government director. “Volunteers no longer need to revel in coaching or a foreign language to help us.”
