Our students are immigrants and refugees from many parts of the world. They seek to improve their English skills in reading, writing, listening, and speaking. Some students request additional tutorial time to assist them in areas of personal needs.

RECRUITMENT DESCRIPTION: These classes we offer are attended by some really good people. It is a fun, rewarding experience teaching ESL and Citizenship classes. Someone who would want to volunteer in this role is an individual who likes to work with people, enjoys teaching different subjects, likes languages, likes to work in a classroom setting, and finds that a happy smile of comprehension is one of the greatest rewards of all. |
