ORGANIZATION: Catholic Charities of Los Angeles, Inc.

  • 12 people are interested

Help teach English to a recent US arrival. She is eager to learn English but has no expirience speaking the language. Some books and learning tools will be provided, and no previous teaching skills are necessary. This oppertunity would entail meeting her on a regular, perhaps weekly basis, teaching basic English reading, writing, and speaking skills. Part of this oppertunity may involve helping her take the bus (or driving her to) her formal English classes, which are 5 minutes by car from her home.
