Abstract	This training packet, consisting of a workshop guide, two instructional guides, and assorted pamphlets and brochures, is intended for use by volunteer tutors who are themselves learning how to work with adults enrolled in an adult literacy program. The following topics are covered in the training workshop guide: the objectives and workings of adult basic education (ABE) programs--effective ways of working with adult learners and content and workings of the General Educational Development (GED) test; reading (testing and placement for reading instruction, beginning reading, intermediate reading, characteristics of good readers, and GED reading tests); mathematics (GED test questions, the hierarchy of math skills, textbooks, and math skills needed); and English grammar (English materials used in the GED, correct usage, common grammar and usage problems, and the format of the GED writing skills test). The two-part instructional guide, which is designed for use in conjunction with an educational television series entitled "Helping Adults Learn," covers the following topics: the characteristics and needs of adult students, techniques for communicating with students, methods of counseling adult learners, the language experience approach to teaching adults to read, and resources for use in addressing students' needs. Each section includes objectives, tutoring guidelines, and a discussion of key points raised during the television series. A GED practice test, tutor data form, pamphlet answering common questions about the GED test, and brochures explaining other locally available job search and ABE programs for adults are also included.
