Our Mission

Together with our volunteer tutors, we teach reading, math, computer skills, and English as a Second Language (ESL). Tutoring is done at our location in northwest Detroit having a minimal fee of $22.00. Learners enjoy a comfortable environment with adults of all ages.
Since 1995, over 600 tutors have helped over 2000 adult learners meet the challenges of their everyday lives. Please browse through our website to see what Siena Literacy Center has to offer. Siena Literacy Center is a proud to be part of Dominican Rea Literacy Corporation and is an accredited affiliate of Proliteracy.
Adult learners come to the Center with diverse backgrounds, abilities, and goals.
