ESL Workshops: English for Conversation
We are pleased to extend the English language learning opportunities to those in the community who are not able to participate in our traditional intensive ESL program for academic purposes. To do so, DIEP will start offering ESL workshops for a reduced cost throughout the year. Each workshop will focus on integrated language skills with a special emphasis on conversation.
Who takes ESL workshops in DIEP?
Anyone who is at least 16 years old and who would like to learn and improve English language skills can participate in ESL workshops in DIEP.
