[Who We Are]

We are Project W.I.L.D, Working for Immigrant Literacy Development, serving students from the age of 8 to 14 years old in the Monterey Park and Rosemead area as a free English tutorial and mentorship program. Our main focus is to reinforce reading, writing, and speech in the English language. Many of the students that we tutor have parents that immigrated to America, so they may not have the English background that is needed for higher-level education. Through weekly tutorial sessions, Project W.I.L.D provides students with the foundation that they need and may not receive at home.

[What We Do]

Every Saturday from 9am to 12pm, our tutors go to Temple Intermediate, which is an intermediate school located in Rosemead, CA. Our program splits the students into three groups: beginning, intermediate, and advanced, according to their English proficiency level. For each group, the students develop English reading, speaking, and writing skills through lessons and worksheets that are designed for and tailored to their English level by the tutors themselves. In addition to our English tutorial program, our tutors also serve as positive role models for our students, helping them achieve academic success and increase self-esteem.
