Mission Statement

English Together brings together and creates rich connections between ordinary speakers of English and low-wage, immigrant workers by preparing volunteers to provide one-on-one "coaching" in workplace English.

Description

From its beginning as a service-learning Cardinal Course at Stanford University, English Together has served hundreds of Stanford students who have engaged in coaching campus custodians through the Habla el Dia and Habla la Noche programs as well as immigrant workers in nearby communities.
With community partners, we identify frontline working adults who need and want to develop workplace English.Volunteers "coach" frontline workers in developing practical, everyday, workplace English using the English Together approach.Workers become more confident in using English and come together with volunteers to break down barriers and build trust.
