Whether you just arrived or even if you have been here for more than 20 years, Chapelgate Church and their ESL program would like to welcome you to America!
We know that life can be difficult here if you do not speak English well, so we would like to help you learn to speak English better through a variety of activities, including free English classes.
We have English as a Second Language Classes for adults on Wednesday nights from September through May. These classes are divided by fluency level. We have classes from very low beginner level through an advanced level. We use the same curriculum that most community colleges use. Our teachers are well-trained volunteers that want to help you.
You may register for these classes on any Wednesday night during the school year. The classes are free, but we do ask that you purchase a textbook. We also provide free childcare for children from babies through age 12.
Tuesday mornings, 9:30 - 11:15 am at Chapelgate Rooms 209/210
(Majestic One Theatre)
- We study English and American culture while supporting each other as wives and mothers.
- Class is open to all women.
- You do not have to be a mother to attend.
- You may start on any Tuesday
Note: If public schools have delayed opening or are closed on Tuesday morning, we do NOT have class.
