Classes

Students who are learning English as a second or foreign language are encouraged to attend ESL classes. Classes are a good way to offer solid curriculum, and they provide an opportunity to practice English through interaction with others.

We offer three levels of instruction and a wide range of meeting times to accommodate the needs of our students. When students enroll into our program, we assess their language skill level. Using this information, we can make recommendations for classes based on that student’s language level and needs.

A schedule of our classes and meeting times is published every month. The following is a list of our current offerings.
