I would like to welcome all of you to our Tutor Meet and Greet. Thank you all for coming. My name is Terese Du Pont (GIVE BACKGROUND).
•
Today we are going to talk about health literacy, and what we as tutors can do to help our students with their own health literacy.
•
We will discuss what health literacy is;
•
what some of the difficulties are, especially in relation to low-literacy adults;
•
some strategies you can use with your students to help them.
