Administrative Staff and Teachers

Our experienced program staff and teachers are dedicated to the needs of the adult ESOL community in Worcester, Massachusetts and our surrounding towns. Our professional, open-office policy welcomes the learner, providing confidential evaluation and multiple program offerings to gain English language proficiency. Our experienced ESOL teachers strive to create interactive classrooms around targeted subject curriculum. They utilize Rosetta Stone® and SMARTBoard® technology to engage adults in a relaxed environment that is student-centered with formative assessment within the classroom. About one-third of our tutored students participate in both our group ESOL courses and individual one-to-one tutoring to increase instructional hours.
