Conversational English for ESOL

ESOL students will practice speaking, listening and understanding everyday English conversation in many different situations, such as on the telephone, going to the doctor, and applying for a job. Students will learn and practice pronunciation of English sounds. They will practice forming spoken sentences correctly. Students will also learn how to use many resources to help them study English conversation beyond the classroom. Rolling admission is dependent upon available space.

Fine Motor Friday (ages 18 months – 5 years)

Before entering kindergarten children should spend time practicing and building fine motor skills. A few of these skills include: using scissors, folding paper, drawing, sorting, coloring, painting, and using tape. Join us with your children to explore fun activities which build these skills. Activities are made from easy-to-find everyday household items, so you and your youngster can re-create this play at home. Space is limited – register early! Please notify us of any allergies as we ask all parents to bring a snack for their child. No class on 10/6, 11/17, 11/24.
