Overview
Classes are open to adults who want to improve their language skills, including writing, reading, speaking, and listening. The benefits of an ESOL program allows students a better chance to succeed in life, their career, and post-secondary education pursuits. Most importantly, improvement in language skills will enable people to express themselves more fully and build confidence, it will open the door to new possibilities and career-related opportunities they deserve. The ESOL is a non-credit program funded by the Massachusetts Department of Elementary and Secondary Education and is offered free of charge including books.
