Adult English Classes
Real World English is a culturally responsive program that supports language and community development through practical English instruction at different levels for adult learners: basic 1, basic 2, intermediate and advanced. All courses are free. Our learning community is a safe and open environment for adult students and their children regardless of native language, immigration status, nationality, religion, or other social, ethnic, or racial characteristics.
Our focus is on student-centered learning using ‘best practices’ in teaching English to speakers of other languages, and we highly value cultural interactions and cross-cultural understanding.
Children’s Program
While parents are improving their English, we offer free STEAM (science, technology, engineering, arts, and math) activities for children ages 2-14. These activities focus on a theme each week. Examples of the themes include plants, light, flight, momentum, mass and balance, deserts, oceans, simple machines, gravity, etc.
Teacher Support
