English Language Classes (ESL)

Program Overview

TLC's English for Speakers of Other Languages (ESOL) Program is designed to assist adult learners who want to improve their English language comprehension. Courses include beginner, intermediate, and advanced levels and focus on conversational English, as well as reading and writing in English. Courses are designed to assist our students with day-to-day activities at home, at work and in the community. Students will have access to learning tools in our computer lab, including Rosetta Stone and other programs to help you practice. Individual tutors are also available when needed. Learning a new language can be intimidating and TLC wants to support you in this exciting endeavor. All students will be asked to complete a basic English comprehension test during their registration process. This will allow us to accurately place you with other students who are at the same level of fluency as you.

Student and Volunteer Success Stories

"When my daughter's father died, I knew I had to make a big change for myself and for her future. Taking classes at The Literacy Center was that change for me. Thanks to my amazing teachers, I got my GED and now am in a nursing program to become a nurse. I am so grateful to The Literacy Center." - Marisela, TLC graduate 2018
