Deaf adults in India, Uganda, Ghana, Rwanda, and Nepal use peer tutoring to improve literacy skills among Deaf children and adults. A three-year project is building upon an earlier pilot project that had success training Deaf peer tutors. Deaf tutors provide sign language-based literacy tutoring to Deaf students. The current project began in 2017 and is to continue through 2020.
