This program is designed specifically for immigrants who are non-literate in the English language or need literacy support. Their English language skills are so low that they are not ready to be enrolled in federally funded LINC classes or other ESL programs. This program will help participants acquire basic essentials for learning the English language. Completion of this program will minimize the language-learning obstacles experienced by some individuals and will prepare them for basic conversations and recognition of the English alphabet and words. This program also focuses on improving participants’ self-esteem and confidence when speaking the English language. There are no restrictions on immigration status or length of residency. Open to both men and women.
