The English Practice Program needs volunteers to assist our adult English language students with small group conversation practice or one-on-one writing tutoring.

Evening Conversation Groups, January 28th - March 11th:
  • When: Tuesdays and Wednesdays
  • Time: 5:45pm to 6:45pm
Evening Writing Partners, January 28th - March 11th:
  • When: Tuesdays and Wednesdays
  • Time: 5:45pm to 6:45pm
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, assist individual students with homework from their writing and grammar classes and help students as they 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.

For more information, please email Jordan Van Horn at jvanhorn@lagcc.cuny.edu for evening sessions.
