Offers an entry-level program for adult refugees and immigrants on learning to speak and read English. The program uses the Co-Teacher method, which provides students with a co-teacher from their community who speaks their language, understands their culture, and is aware of the barriers students face with accessing community resources. During class, co-teachers assist with delivering class material, help facilitate communication between students and the lead teacher, and offer feedback to assure class activities are relevant, effective, and culturally appropriate. Co-teachers also keep in touch with students outside the classroom. This aids in student retention and success.
