English 1 on 1 strives to break the language barrier for refugees and immigrants. To do this, we we teach English. We teach our students how to communicate with those around them by giving them the most important tool: language. We teach our students how to succeed in the workforce by giving them a key communication tool. We want our students to show others who they are, what they stand for. The only way to do this is by teaching English and introducing our students to a brand new culture.
