An adult who cannot read has a poor self image and avoids the problem.  We are exploring a strategy based on Early Reading.  An educator asked how to Introduce Adult Eucation into the schools.  An expansion of my previous statement.

===========================================

You do not introduce adult literacy into the schools. You slip them into it.

I assume you know people who cannot read. Talk to them about what you are doing in the school with slow readers.

Let them understand the difference between reading for comprehension and reading aloud.

Demonstrate Early Reading and show them they can read.

Ask them to help out with the children

This is the kind of strategy I might use in New York. You may have a different strategy in Nairobi, but you can achieve the same end.
