What is an adjunct reading instructor?

Adjunct Reading Instructors are part-time faculty members who teach reading and literacy courses, often at colleges or community colleges. Their primary role is to help students develop and strengthen reading comprehension, critical thinking, and study skills. They may work with students who need remedial support or those looking to enhance their academic reading abilities. Adjunct instructors typically work on a contract basis, often teaching one or more courses per semester, and may also participate in curriculum development or academic advising.
