English as a Second Language We offer eight (8) levels of ESL. The beginning level classes teach basic vocabu- lary, grammar, pronunciation, reading, and writing. A variety of field trips and content-based activities enhance the students' understanding and the vision of their local and global commu- nity. The advanced ESL levels aim to bridge the gap for students ready to enter college or the workforce by providing the train- ing necessary to speak, read, write, and understand English in real work and life situations. All classes are student-centered and focus on helping students achieve individual long- and short-term goals.
