**Registration is now closed for the 2025-2026 ESL year. It will open again in August.**
We realize it is not easy to leave your homeland, move to the United States, and begin to learn a new language. We welcome adult students, age 18 and older, to join us in learning conversational English in a fun and relaxed way.
Our teachers are ESL certified volunteers. Some have a background in public school teaching, and each has a love for people of the nations. We enjoy meeting each week with students from different countries. Our goal is to share God’s love and the life-changing gospel of Jesus with people of all nations through English language learning.
Three levels of classes are offered: Beginner, Intermediate and Advanced, as well as a Citizenship preparation class. Classes meet each Thursday from 6:30 – 8:30 pm on the second floor. Classes are free, with a $20 materials fee for each student. And because they are too young to attend adult classes, free childcare is provided for children 6th grade and under.
