English Classes (ESL)

College Students in Classroom

MAM’s adult English as a Second Language (ESL) courses are for people who want to speak and understand English better. Non-native English speakers will be empowered to go to work and participate in their children’s education and our community.

 

There are six instructional levels, from Foundations for Beginners to Advanced Conversation. Classes are provided both virtually and in-person. More than six sites are used for in-person classes.

​

MAM classes feature ‘small groups’ that promote a sense of team, personal connections, and conversation; community volunteers are our teachers.

​

Student fees: $40 per semester; all learning materials are provided at no cost to the student.
