The Oakland Catholic Worker offers free beginner level English classes for Spanish speakers. ESL assistants work with primary ESL teachers to facilitate class activities. They may work with individual students or a group of students as necessary. They may also serve as occasional translators/interpreters depending on the Spanish proficiency level of the primary teacher. Assistants needed 10:00-11:30am Tuesday and Wednesday and 7:00-8:30pm Wednesday. Volunteers sign up for one or more of these times each week.
