Language, literacy and numeracy skills are critical to almost all areas of work. This is particularly true in many vocations where language, literacy and numeracy skills influence the performance of workplace tasks such as measuring, weighing and comprehending written work instructions.

Sometimes students have trouble with their language, literacy (reading and writing) and numeracy skills, which is very common. Having trouble with these skills is nothing to be ashamed of. Grenfell Institute of Technology Australia conducts a mandatory LLN test during the enrolment process to identify the support needs of our students.
- One-on-one tutoring
- Writing assistance
- Tailoring timetable
- Written or verbal feedback on students’ draft responses
- Flexible assessment methods
You can also speak to your Trainer/Assessor and our designated student support officers if you feel you are lacking any component of the LLN.
The following websites may help you find support for your LLN skills:
- BBC Skill Wise – You may find resources for developing English skills including reading, writing, spelling, speaking and listening.
- Reading Writing Hotline –This site provides information that supports literacy in forms of games and quizzes.
