English as a Second Language Classes
Classes of 1-6 students meet twice a week for a total of three hours. Students and tutors are matched depending on their schedules and the student's level of English skills. The goal of the class is to help students achieve their immediate language needs in everyday life, and also work towards long-term life goals that require English. Both students and tutors commit to having class for a minimum of 45 hours (30 class sessions).
