Welcome to our ESL Practice Program at The English Language Center!
The ESL Practice Program needs volunteers to assist our adult English language students with small group conversation practice or one-on-one writing tutoring.
The aim of Conversation Groups is to further our students' speaking and listening skills. Many of our students live with family or friends and don't get to practice these skills outside of class. Writing Partners, on the other hand, help individual students with homework from their writing and grammar classes as well as help students improve their overall writing skills.
Volunteers are asked to commit only one hour per week, though we are happy to have you more often if you like. Our students are very motivated and fun to work with, and they are very appreciative of any help you can give.
Afternoon Writing Partners:
- When: Mondays, January 27th - March 9th
- Time: 1:00PM to 2:00PM
- Place: LaGuardia Community College (TELC), Room C-354
Afternoon Conversation Groups:
- When: Thursdays, January 30th - March 12th
- Time: 1:00PM to 2:00PM
- Place: LaGuardia Community College (TELC), Room C-354
