The focus of this class is the development of listening and speaking skills while exploring the basics of everyday conversation. This is a free class for beginners that is funded by our partner, the Massachusetts Department of Elementary and Secondary Education.

This class focuses on developing listening, speaking and grammar while covering the following topics: health and nutrition, the basics of financial literacy (budget and savings, credit and credit cards) health insurance, job search, interview questions, educational and job opportunities, transportation and travel, technology, and safety and security.

This class continues to explore, but in more detail, the topics discussed in the beginning class. It also focuses on developing skills for continuing education and job promotions including: reading comprehension, note taking, writing summaries, oral presentations, computer literacy and using cloud platforms.
