A journey begins with just one step forward.

We make journeys throughout our lives.  Some are short and others  seem never-ending.  Some journeys are never taken because they seem impossible to finish.   

 

Do you know someone who needs to start their journey down the path to improving their lives through basic education?

We can help!   If you know someone that wants to improve their skills in English, math, reading, writing or needs a GED or High School Diploma, we can help them make that happen!   

 

What's more important, YOU can help them by introducing them to Sound Learning!   Share this website with them, give them our phone number, or bring them to our office.

The first step is to meet with us and get enrolled in classes at Sound Learning.  Students can start at ANY time.  We provide services in Shelton and Thurston County.

 

Contact our office to schedule an introduction interview.  360-426-9733 or send an email to us at staff@soundlearning.co.     

It's never too late to get started!  You can help yourself or someone you care about!

Get a job, keep a job, get a better job!

Sound Learning is celebrating twenty-eight years as a non-profit organization that helps adults improve their basic skills, acquire a high school diploma or GED and develop English language skills.

In today's world, literacy refers to the ability to read, write, and speak in English, solve basic math problems, use technology effectively, navigate community systems, and manage personal finances to function and succeed on the job, in the family, and in society.

Studies show that adults with low levels of literacy have the hardest time getting a job and often are the first to lose a job. More than 20% of adults in the United States read at or below a fifth grade level which is far below the level needed to earn a family living wage.

 

The entire community benefits when literacy rates are high.  A literate society creates a prepared workforce, better job opportunities, supports a strong commitment to children's success in school, and reduces reliance on public services.

                                For More Information or to Apply:

 

If you're interested in volunteering for us please give us a call at (360) 426-9733 or stop by our office at 133 W. Railroad Ave in Shelton.  A volunteer application and general volunteer information can be found on our volunteer page or just click
